Hebrews 7:9-11

Darby Translation

⁹ and, so to speak, through Abraham, Levi also, who received tithes, has been made to pay tithes.

¹⁰ For he was yet in the loins of his father when Melchisedec met him.

¹¹ 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?
