Hebrews 7:23-28 And many of them became priests because they were prevented by death from continuing,

Riverside⁽ⁱ⁾ ²³ And many of them became priests because they were prevented by death from continuing, ²⁴ but he, because he continues forever, has an unending priesthood. ²⁵ And so he is able to save perfectly those who come to God through him, since he is forever living to intercede for them. ²⁶ For such was the High Priest that we needed, holy, innocent, unstained, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens. ²⁷ He has not the daily need, like the other priests, first to offer sacrifices for his own sins and then for those of the people. This latter he did once for all when he offered himself. ²⁸ For the Law makes high priests of men who have infirmities, but the word of the oath, which comes after the Law, makes High Priest of a Son who is perfected forever.
