'Priest' in the Bible

Wherefore it behooved him in all things to be made like unto his brethren, that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, even Jesus;

Having then a great high priest, who hath passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

For we have not a high priest that cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but one that hath been in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

For every high priest, being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:

So Christ also glorified not himself to be made a high priest, but he that spake unto him, Thou art my Son, This day have I begotten thee:

as he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever After the order of Melchizedek.

named of God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.

whither as a forerunner Jesus entered for us, having become a high priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.

For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,

without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like unto the Son of God), abideth a priest continually.

And they indeed of the sons of Levi that receive the priest's office have commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though these have come out of the loins of Abraham:

Now if there was perfection through the Levitical priesthood (for under it hath the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should arise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be reckoned after the order of Aaron?

And what we say is yet more abundantly evident, if after the likeness of Melchizedek there ariseth another priest,

for it is witnessed of him, Thou art a priest for ever After the order of Melchizedek.

(for they indeed have been made priests without an oath; but he with an oath by him that saith of him, The Lord sware and will not repent himself, Thou art a priest for ever);

For such a high priest became us, holy, guileless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;

Now in the things which we are saying the chief point is this : We have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,

For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is necessary that this high priest also have somewhat to offer.

Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, seeing there are those who offer the gifts according to the law;

but into the second the high priest alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offereth for himself, and for the errors of the people:

But Christ having come a high priest of the good things to come, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation,

nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place year by year with blood not his own;

And every priest indeed standeth day by day ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, the which can never take away sins:

and having a great priest over the house of God;

For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burned without the camp.
