Ibrani 5:4

5:4 And no one assumes this honor ¹  on his own initiative, ²  but only when called to it by God, ³  as in fact Aaron was.

Ibrani 6:19

6:19 We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, sure and steadfast, which reaches inside behind the curtain, ⁴ 

Ibrani 7:26

7:26 For it is indeed fitting for us to have such a high priest: holy, innocent, undefiled, separate from sinners, and exalted above the heavens.

Ibrani 8:1

The High Priest of a Better Covenant

8:1 Now the main point of what we are saying is this: ⁵  We have such a high priest, one who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, ⁶ 

Ibrani 12:14

Do Not Reject God’s Warning

12:14 Pursue peace with everyone, and holiness, ⁷  for without it no one will see the Lord.

[5:4]  ¹ sn Honor refers here to the honor of the high priesthood.

[5:4]  ² tn Grk “by himself, on his own.”

[5:4]  ³ tn Grk “being called by God.”

[6:19]  ⁴ sn The curtain refers to the veil or drape in the temple that separated the holy place from the holy of holies.

[8:1]  ⁵ tn Grk “the main point of the things being said.”

[8:1]  ⁶ sn An allusion to Ps 110:1; see Heb 1:3, 13.

[12:14]  ⁷ sn The references to peace and holiness show the close connection between this paragraph and the previous one. The pathway toward “holiness” and the need for it is cited in Heb 12:10 and 14. More importantly Prov 4:26-27 sets up the transition from one paragraph to the next: It urges people to stay on godly paths (Prov 4:26, quoted here in v. 13) and promises that God will lead them in peace if they do so (Prov 4:27 [LXX], quoted in v. 14).
