Hebrews 7:4 Context
2To whom also Abraham gaue a tenth part of all: first being by interpretation king of righteousnesse, and after that also king of Salem, which is, king of peace. 3Without father, without mother, without descent, hauing neither beginning of dayes nor end of life: but made like vnto the Sonne of God, abideth a Priest continually. 4Now consider how great this man was, vnto whō euen the patriarch Abraham gaue the tenth of the spoiles. 5And verily they that are of the sonnes of Leui, who receiue the office of the Priesthood, haue a commandement to take Tithes of the people according to the Law, that is of their brethren, though they come out of the loines of Abraham: 6But he whose descent is not counted from them, receiued tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
