NASB | Hebrews 7:12 For when the priesthood is changed, of necessity there takes place a change of law also. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 7:12 For when there is a change in the priesthood, there is of necessity a change of the law [concerning the priesthood] as well. |
Subject: A change of the law |
Bible Note: Please refer to Hebrews 5:7-11. Jesus's priesthood was NOT of the Levitical order but of the order of Melchizedek. I believe it is important to remember that this order preceded the giving of the Law! God is not only the law giver , but the establisher of its administration; He is a God of order. Everything happens according to His plan! The moment the veil in the temple was torn, the old order of things passed away and Jesus established a new and better order! The administration of the priesthood changed. It follows that a new administration will also have a different or changed character. We are under a new covenant called grace, not the old covenant called the Law; and Revelation 21:4 assures us that even this covenant will be replaced by something better: "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." |
