Hebrews 7:11-19
11
It was on the basis of the levitical priesthood that the Law was given to the people of Israel. Now, if the work of the levitical priests had been perfect, there would have been no need for a different kind of priest to appear, one who is in the priestly order of Melchizedek, not of Aaron.
12
For when the priesthood is changed, there also has to be a change in the law.
13
And our Lord, of whom these things are said, belonged to a different tribe, and no member of his tribe ever served as a priest.
14
It is well known that he was born a member of the tribe of Judah; and Moses did not mention this tribe when he spoke of priests.
15
The matter becomes even plainer; a different priest has appeared, who is like Melchizedek.
16
He was made a priest, not by human rules and regulations, but through the power of a life which has no end.
17
For the scripture says, "You will be a priest forever, in the priestly order of Melchizedek."
18
The old rule, then, is set aside, because it was weak and useless.
19
For the Law of Moses could not make anything perfect. And now a better hope has been provided through which we come near to God.

Hebrews 9:9-11
9
This is a symbol which points to the present time. It means that the offerings and animal sacrifices presented to God cannot make the worshiper's heart perfect,
10
since they have to do only with food, drink, and various purification ceremonies. These are all outward rules, which apply only until the time when God will establish the new order.
11
But Christ has already come as the High Priest of the good things that are already here. The tent in which he serves is greater and more perfect; it is not a tent made by human hands, that is, it is not a part of this created world.
Hebrews 10:1-18
1
The Jewish Law is not a full and faithful model of the real things; it is only a faint outline of the good things to come. The same sacrifices are offered forever, year after year. How can the Law, then, by means of these sacrifices make perfect the people who come to God?
2
If the people worshiping God had really been purified from their sins, they would not feel guilty of sin any more, and all sacrifices would stop.
3
As it is, however, the sacrifices serve year after year to remind people of their sins.
4
For the blood of bulls and goats can never take away sins.
5
For this reason, when Christ was about to come into the world, he said to God: "You do not want sacrifices and offerings, but you have prepared a body for me.
6
You are not pleased with animals burned whole on the altar or with sacrifices to take away sins.
7
Then I said, 'Here I am, to do your will, O God, just as it is written of me in the book of the Law.' "
8
First he said, "You neither want nor are you pleased with sacrifices and offerings or with animals burned on the altar and the sacrifices to take away sins." He said this even though all these sacrifices are offered according to the Law.
9
Then he said, "Here I am, O God, to do your will." So God does away with all the old sacrifices and puts the sacrifice of Christ in their place.
10
Because Jesus Christ did what God wanted him to do, we are all purified from sin by the offering that he made of his own body once and for all.
11
Every Jewish priest performs his services every day and offers the same sacrifices many times; but these sacrifices can never take away sins.
12
Christ, however, offered one sacrifice for sins, an offering that is effective forever, and then he sat down at the right side of God.
13
There he now waits until God puts his enemies as a footstool under his feet.
14
With one sacrifice, then, he has made perfect forever those who are purified from sin.
15
And the Holy Spirit also gives us his witness. First he says,
16
"This is the covenant that I will make with them in the days to come, says the Lord: I will put my laws in their hearts and write them on their minds."
17
And then he says, "I will not remember their sins and evil deeds any longer."
18
So when these have been forgiven, an offering to take away sins is no longer needed.
Hebrews 12:26-28
26
His voice shook the earth at that time, but now he has promised, "I will once more shake not only the earth but heaven as well."
27
The words "once more" plainly show that the created things will be shaken and removed, so that the things that cannot be shaken will remain.
28
Let us be thankful, then, because we receive a kingdom that cannot be shaken. Let us be grateful and worship God in a way that will please him, with reverence and awe;
