'Different' in the Bible
Long ago God spoke to the fathers by the prophets at different times and in different ways.
having become as much superior to angels, since He has inherited a more excellent and glorious name than they [that is, Son—the name above all names].
If indeed then perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, for the people had their law given to them in connexion with it, what need was there still that a different priest should arise according to the order of Melchisedec, and not be named after the order of Aaron?
For the One these things are spoken about belonged to a different tribe. No one from it has served at the altar.
And it is yet more abundantly evident, since a different priest arises according to the similitude of Melchisedec,
only in victuals, and drinks, and different baptisms, and fleshly ordinances -- till the time of reformation imposed upon them.
Do not be carried away by diverse and strange teachings; for it is good for the heart to be established and strengthened by grace and not by foods [rules of diet and ritualistic meals], which bring no benefit or spiritual growth to those who observe them.
