Hebrews 7:23-28 Also, while they became priests in large numbers, since death prevents them from continuing to serve,

Moffatt⁽ⁱ⁾ ²³ Also, while they became priests in large numbers, since death prevents them from continuing to serve, ²⁴ he holds his priesthood without any successor, since he continues for ever. ²⁵ Hence for all time he is able to save those who approach God through him, as he is always living to intercede on their behalf. ²⁶ Such was the high priest for us, saintly, innocent, unstained, lifted high above the heavens, far from all contact with the sinful, ²⁷ one who has no need, like yonder high priests, day by day to offer sacrifices first for their own sins and then for those of the People — he did that once for all in offering up himself. ²⁸ For the Law appoints human beings in their weakness to the priesthood; but the word of the Oath appoints a Son who is made perfect for ever.
