Hebrews 5:4-10

4And no one takes this honor on himself, but he receives it when called by God, just as Aaron was.

5In the same way, Christ did not take on himself the glory of becoming a high priest. But God said to him, “You are my Son; today I have become your Father.”

6And he says in another place, “You are a priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek.”

7During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission.

8Son though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered

9and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him

10and was designated by God to be high priest in the order of Melchizedek.
