26For this is the kind of high priest we need: holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens.d 27He doesn’t need to offer sacrifices every day, as high priests do—first for their own sins, then for those of the people. He did this once for all time when he offered himself.e 28For the law appoints as high priests men who are weak, but the promise of the oath, which came after the law, appoints a Son,f who has been perfectedg forever.

A HEAVENLY PRIESTHOOD

8Now the main point of what is being said is this: We have this kind of high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,h 2a minister of the sanctuary and the true tabernacle that was set up by the Lord and not man.i
