11 Of whom we have
many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.

Hebrews
Chapter 5
Yet Learned He
Obedience
1 For every high
priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God,
that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins: 2 who can have compassion
on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also
is compassed with infirmity. 3 And by reason hereof he ought, as for the
people, so also for himself, to offer for sins. 4 And no man taketh this honour
unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron. 5 So also Christ
glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him,
Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee. 6 As he saith also in another
place, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. 7 Who in the days
of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong
crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard
in that he feared; 8 though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the
things which he suffered; 9 and being made perfect, he became the author of
eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; 10 called of God an high priest
after the order of Melchisedec.
