<p><strong>Hebrews 7:24-25</strong><br />
KJV—But this (Jesus), because he continueth<br />
ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.<br />
Wherefore he is able also to save them to<br />
the uttermost that come unto God by him,<br />
seeing he ever liveth to make intercession<br />
for them.</p>
<p>Amp—But He holds His priesthood unchangeably<br />
because He lives on forever.<br />
Therefore He is able also to save to the<br />
uttermost—completely, perfectly, finally<br />
and for all time and eternity—those who<br />
come to God through Him, since He is<br />
always living to make petition to God<br />
and intercede with Him and intervene<br />
for them.</p>
<p>Moffatt—He holds his priesthood without<br />
any successor, since he continues for ever.<br />
Hence for all time he is able to save those<br />
who approach God through him, since he is<br />
always living to intercede on their behalf.</p>
<p>NEB—But the priesthood which Jesus holds<br />
is perpetual, because he remains for ever.<br />
That is why he is also able to save absolutely<br />
those who approach God through him;<br />
he is always living to plead on their behalf.</p>
<p><strong>Hebrews 8:6, 10-12</strong><br />
KJV—But now hath he obtained a more excellent<br />
ministry, by how much also he is the<br />
mediator of a better covenant, which was<br />
established upon better promises.</p>
<p>For this is the covenant that I will make<br />
with the house of Israel after those days, saith<br />
the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind,<br />
and write them in their hearts: and I will be to<br />
them a God, and they shall be to me a people:<br />
And they shall not teach every man his<br />
neighbour, and every man his brother, saying,<br />
Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from<br />
the least to the greatest. For I will be merciful<br />
to their unrighteousness, and their sins and<br />
their iniquities will I remember no more.</p>
<p>Amp—But as it now is, He [Christ] has acquired<br />
a [priestly] ministry which is as much<br />
superior and more excellent [than the old]<br />
as the covenant—the agreement—of which<br />
He is the Mediator (the Arbiter, Agent) is<br />
superior and more excellent; [because] it is<br />
enacted and rests upon more important<br />
(sublimer, higher and nobler) promises.</p>
<p>For this is the covenant that I will make<br />
with the house of Israel after those days,<br />
says the Lord: I will imprint My laws upon<br />
their minds, even upon their innermost<br />
thoughts and understanding, and engrave<br />
them upon their hearts, and I will be their<br />
God, and they shall be My people. And it<br />
will nevermore be necessary for every one<br />
to teach his neighbor and his fellow citizen<br />
or every one his brother, saying, Know—<br />
[that is,] perceive, have knowledge of and<br />
get acquainted by experience with—the<br />
Lord; for all will know Me, from the smallest<br />
to the greatest of them. For I will be merciful<br />
and gracious toward their sins and I will<br />
remember their deeds of unrighteousness<br />
no more.</p>
<p>Moffatt—As it is, however, the divine service<br />
he has obtained is superior, owing to the<br />
fact that he mediates a superior covenant,<br />
enacted with superior promises.</p>
<p>This is the covenant I will make with the<br />
house of Israel when that day comes, saith<br />
the Lord; I will set my laws within their mind,<br />
inscribing them upon their hearts; I will be a<br />
God to them, and they shall be a People<br />
to me; one citizen will no longer teach his<br />
fellow, one man will no longer teach his<br />
brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for all are<br />
to know me, low and high together. I will be<br />
merciful to their iniquities, and remember<br />
their sins no more.</p>
<p>NEB—But in fact the ministry which has<br />
fallen to Jesus is as far superior to theirs<br />
as are the covenant he mediates and the<br />
promises upon which it is legally secured.</p>
<p>‘For the covenant I will make with the<br />
house of Israel after those days, says the<br />
Lord, is this: I will set my laws in their understanding<br />
and write them on their hearts;<br />
and I will be their God, and they shall be<br />
my people. And they shall not teach one<br />
another, saying to brother and fellow-citizen,<br />
“Know the Lord!” For all of them, high and<br />
low, shall know me; I will be merciful to their<br />
wicked deeds, and I will remember their sins<br />
no more.’</p>
