Contextual Overview

11 If therefore perfection was by the priesthood of ye Leuites (For vnder that priesthood the people receaued the law) what neded it furthermore that another priest shoulde rise after the order of Melchisedech, and not to be called after the order of Aaron? 12 For yf the priesthood be translated, of necessitie also there is made a translation of the lawe. 13 For he of whom these thynges are spoken, parteyneth vnto another tribe, of which no man stoode at the aulter. 14 For it is euident that our Lord sprong out of Iuda, of which tribe spake Moyses nothyng concernyng priesthood: 15 And it is yet a farre more euidet thing, yf after the similitude of Melchisedech there aryse another priest, 16 Which is not made after the lawe of the carnall commaundement, but after the power of the endlesse lyfe: 17 For he testifieth that thou art a priest for euer, after the order of Melchisedech. 18 For there is truely a disanulling of the commaundement goyng before, for the weakenesse and vnprofitablenesse therof. 19 For the lawe made nothyng perfect, but [was] the bryngyng in of a better hope, by the whiche we drawe nygh vnto God. 20 And in as much as that was not without an oth (For those priestes were made without an oth:

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For he testifieth,.... That is, either David, the penman of the psalm, or rather the Holy Ghost, the enditer of it, or God in the Scripture, in Psalms 110:4 of this form of citing Scripture,

Psalms 110:4- :.

thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec; see Hebrews 5:6.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

For he testifieth - “That this is the true account of it is proved by the testimony of God himself, that he was to be a priest for ever;” see the note on Hebrews 5:6.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 17. For he testifieth — That is, either the Scripture, in the place so often quoted, or God by that Scripture.

Thou art a priest for ever — This is the proof that he was not appointed according to the carnal commandment, but according to the power of an endless life, because he is a priest for ever; i.e. one that never dies, and is never disabled from performing the important functions of his office; for if he be a priest for ever, he ever lives.
