Hebrews 5:10-14

10being designated by God as High Priest according to the order of Melchizedek.

11Concerning this we have much to say, and it is hard to explain, since you have become dull and sluggish in [your spiritual] hearing and disinclined to listen.

12For though by this time you ought to be teachers [because of the time you have had to learn these truths], you actually need someone to teach you again the elementary principles of God’s word [from the beginning], and you have come to be continually in need of milk, not solid food.

13For everyone who lives on milk is [doctrinally inexperienced and] unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a spiritual infant.

14But solid food is for the [spiritually] mature, whose senses are trained by practice to distinguish between what is morally good and what is evil.
