This entire section of vv. 1-10 serves to substantiate (thus the γὰρ in v. 1) the previous section (4:14-16), where believers are called to hold fast and to draw near, because they have a great high priest who is able to sympathize with them in everything yet without sin. Verses 1-3 recount that "every high priest from among man" is appointed to offer sacrifices to God for the people's sin and also for his own sin as well. He is able to sympathize, yes, but as a fellow sinner in need of atonement. Verse 4 moves from the nature of the high priest's ministry of sympathy and sacrifice to the nature of his appointment. No one volunteers to be high priest but is appointed by God. The οὕτως of v. 5 draws a comparison particularly with this note of appointment in v. 4- Jesus too was appointed by God for his priesthood, and the evidence for this claim is again the OT witness in v. 6, first Psalm 2:7 (to reiterate Jesus' Sonship) then Psalm 110:4 (to reiterate his eternal priesthood by God's decree). I think that verses 7-10 describe the surprising manner by which Jesus' eternal priesthood is established. How does an eternal Son who is a priest forever by heavenly decree sympathize with us in all things as was claimed in 4:15? That is precisely the question of vv. 7-10. V. 7: In Jesus' time of trial/temptation, or "in the days of his flesh," he offered prayers and petitions and was heard because of his εὐλαβεία. So the Son can sympathize with us in praying for help and deliverance in intense trial. Verse 8 explains further: even though he was Son (eternally), he learned obedience (temporally) by means of suffering, which equips Jesus to help his "brothers" when they suffer (cf. Heb 2:18). The result of verses 7-8 is laid out in vv. 9-10 : Jesus the obedient Son and eternal priest is the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him . "And being made perfect" does not mean that he was imperfect or deficient in a moral sense previously- it is an eschatological perfection that is in view with this word group.

NT

esv

Πᾶς γὰρ ἀρχιερεὺς ἐξ ἀνθρώπων λαμβανόμενος ὑπὲρ ἀνθρώπων καθίσταται τὰ πρὸς τὸν θεόν,

For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed to act on behalf of men in relation to God,

ἵνα προσφέρῃ δῶρά τε καὶ θυσίας ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτιῶν,

in order to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.

actionpurpose

μετριοπαθεῖν δυνάμενος τοῖς ἀγνοοῦσιν καὶ πλανωμένοις,

[even though] he can deal gently with the ignorant and wayward,

ἐπεὶ καὶ αὐτὸς περίκειται ἀσθένειαν,

since he himself is beset with weakness

ground

καὶ δι’ αὐτὴν

[Nevertheless,] because of this [weakness]

ὀφείλει ... οὕτως καὶ περὶ ἑαυτοῦ προσφέρειν περὶ ἁμαρτιῶν.

he is obligated to offer sacrifice for his own sins

inference

καθὼς περὶ τοῦ λαοῦ

just as he does for those of the people.

comparison

concessive

actionmanner

καὶ οὐχ ἑαυτῷ τις λαμβάνει τὴν τιμήν,

And no one takes this honor for himself,

ἀλλὰ καλούμενος ὑπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ,

but only when called by God,

negativepositive

καθώσπερ καὶ Ἀαρών.

just as Aaron was.

ideaexplanation

οὕτως καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς οὐχ ἑαυτὸν ἐδόξασεν γενηθῆναι ἀρχιερέα,

So also Christ did not exalt himself to be made a high priest,

ἀλλ’ ὁ λαλήσας πρὸς αὐτόν,

but was appointed by him who said to him,

υἱός μου εἶ σύ,

"You are my Son,

ἐγὼ σήμερον γεγέννηκά σε·

today I have begotten you";

καθὼς καὶ ἐν ἑτέρῳ λέγει,

as he says also in another place,

σὺ ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισέδεκ.

"You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek."

ὃς ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις τῆς σαρκὸς αὐτοῦ, δεήσεις τε καὶ ἱκετηρίας πρὸς τὸν δυνάμενον σῴζειν αὐτὸν ἐκ θανάτου μετὰ κραυγῆς ἰσχυρᾶς καὶ δακρύων προσενέγκας

In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to him who was able to save him from death,

καὶ εἰσακουσθεὶς ἀπὸ τῆς εὐλαβείας,

and he was heard because of his reverence.

actionresult

καίπερ ὢν υἱὸς

Although he was a son,

ἔμαθεν ἀφ’ ὧν ἔπαθεν τὴν ὑπακοήν·

he learned obedience through what he suffered.

καὶ τελειωθεὶς

And being made perfect,

ἐγένετο πᾶσιν τοῖς ὑπακούουσιν αὐτῷ αἴτιος σωτηρίας αἰωνίου,

he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him,

temporal

προσαγορευθεὶς ὑπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ ἀρχιερεὺς κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισέδεκ.

being designated by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.
