 *D. 5:1-10 HIGH PRIESTLY MINISTRY OF JESUS AFTER MELCHIZEDEK*

*a. 5:1-3 COMPASSION: REQUIREMENT FOR PRIESTS*

*For every high priest, being taken from men,*

Pas gar ar-chi-eREUS [749], ex anTHR*O*p*o*n lam-baNOme-nos,

*is appointed for men in things :pertaining to :God,*

huPER anTHR*O*p*o*n kaTHISta-tai [2525] ta pros ton TheON,

*that he offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:*

HIna prosPHEr*e* [4374] D*O*-RA te kai thuSIas [2378] huPER ha-mar-ti*O*N
[266]:

*2 who can bear gently with the ignorant and erring,*

me-tri-o-paTHEIN [3356] duNAme-nos tois ag-noOUsi [50] kai pla-n*o*MEnois
[4105],

*since himself also is surrounded with infirmity;*

 alLA kaLOUme-nos huPO tou TheOU, kaTH*O*Sper kai AaR*O*N.


 *c. 5:5-6 CHRIST: CHOSEN BY GOD AS HIGH PRIEST*

*So :Christ also glorified not himself to become high priest,*

HOUt*o*s kai ho ChrisTOS ouch he-auTON eDOxa-sen [1392] ge-n*e*TH*E*nai
ar-chi-eREa [749],

*but who spoke unto him, You are my Son, I today have begotten you:*

*6 as he says also in another place, You are priest unto the age After the
order of Melchizedek.*

*the cause of eternal salvation;*
 AIti-os [159] s*o*-t*e*RIas [4991] ai-*o*NIou [166];

*10 named of :God high priest after the order of Melchizedek.*

pro-sa-go-reuTHEIS [4316] huPO tou TheOU ar-chi-eREUS kaTA t*e*n TAxin
[5010] Mel-chi-seDEK.


 *NOTE: *Psalm 110 according to some, is the most often quoted portion of
OT Scripture in the NT. And - it all revolves around God's appointment of
Jesus as His only begotten Son, into this high eternal calling as the Great
High Priest after the order of Melchizedek! And - because Jesus is not only
Son of God, but also Son of man, He is so identified with us in our
humanity, that He perfectly understands our infirmities, and can therefore
deal gently with us in our ignorance and erring. What a Savior! What a
Redeemer! What a Great High Priest! There is *no one* like Jesus on our
behalf.


 5:7-10 - Many of us have seen Mel Gibson's “The Passion of the Christ.” It
is a true picture of Jesus' physical suffering on our behalf; but it
completely passes by His s*piritual* suffering. “*Cursed* is every man who
hangs upon a tree.” Because Jesus did so at Calvary, He became *a
curse*for us. His
*soul* was made an offering for sin. One man - Adam - brought sin into the
entire human race - the heredity of sin. One man - Jesus - worked mighty
redemption on behalf of the complete human race - past, present and future!
When the curse of the cross entered into His sinless soul, He was forsaken
by God, and His anguish spiritually over-shone His physical suffering a
thousand fold! Maybe *much* more!


 But not only did He have this final unfathomable suffering on the Cross on
our behalf - but all through His life He suffered and learned obedience as
Son of Man through His sufferings. How could we *not* help but yield to Him
our all, as the Holy Spirit makes real to us what redemption on your behalf
and mine truly cost the matchless Son of God? Then we begin to understand
the spirit of Oswald Chambers when he said - the answer is “*Personal*, *
passionate* *devotion* to Jesus! - J.A.Watt


 *2011-12-21 - Dear Readers - Many times in the past you have been a help
when we needed counsel concerning the Printing of the “Outlined Interlinear
New Testament”.*


 *Now the time of printing is very close - but - we need your counsel
concerning the final format.*


 *At present - the “Title-Summaries” for Sentences, Paragraphs and Sections
- appeared “centered” above the English and Transliterated Greek texts.*


 *Our Printer Associate has suggested moving these Title-Summaries to the
left side margin.*


 *What is your “take" on this? Make this adjusted change? - or - leave the
Title-Summaries in their centered position?*


 *Your counsel will be appreciated.*


 *Your friend - Jim Watt*
