Hebrews 5 begins a focus on priesthoods, the priesthood
and the order of Jesus --> Christ, notably being "after the order of Melchisedec",
which is mentioned no less than six
times in Hebrews 5-7, twice
in Hebrews 5
(perhaps to
make a point); And as if comparing the two orders of such priesthoods
as an allegorical
before/after scenario of law/grace. Hebrews 5 also notes Christ
of Jesus --> Christ is only the "author" of "eternal" salvation, not
both author and finisher as Jesus is of our faith; As if the
head of the body: the head of every man (of babe/child/man):
Christ decides what's best for the whole body is no law, since the
result of priests adding law to grace results in infirmities and a dead
end (Hebrews 7:23). Those who do such are not suffered
to continue the human race by reason of death. The conclusion of
Hebrews Chapter 5 states "ye"
folk, such as the Hebrews (plural), are as an adult
"babe", unweaned from law, and unable to discern both good + evil (grace
+ law) ends bad. Ye of ye/you are dull of hearing. Ye are dull
of hearing can't hear what the law saith (I will forget you, and I will
forsake you), nor what an unjust judge
(law) saith to them who ask to be avenged (I will take vengeance on
those asking to be avenged), nor what the Spirit saith unto the
churches (if ye bite and devour one another with law, take heed that
you be not consumed one of another).

Hebrews 5:1 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:...
Note it says every priest taken from among "men" (the plural of "man")
is ordained for "men", and such offer both gifts
(tithes,
offerings) and sacrifices for "sins"
(but when no law,
sin
is not imputed: Romans 5:13) to their God
(law:
majesty on high).
For "
the God of
all grace", also called "
that God" of
this/that, does not even
impute sin, no, not even to "them" of them/us (2Cor 5:19). The God of
peace neither requests
nor takes any pleasure in such offerings and
sacrifices,
which are "of
the law" (Psalms 40; Psalms 51:16; Hosea 6:6; Matthew 9:13; Matthew
12:7;
Hebrews 10: all).
In fact the "immutable" will of that God, the
"living" God of
twain,
is "
I will have
mercy, and not sacrifice".
Paul The Apostle, who writes
To The
Hebrews(plural), is called "
his witness unto all men(plural)", and an
Hebrew of Hebrews.
Such is as the singular speaking to plural (
double minded;
twofold;
highminded who mind
things on high such as plural heavens).
Hebrews 5:2 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...
Many seem to think it speaks of Christ here,
but rather the "who", "he", and "himself" mentioned is talking about
Melchisedec, who is himself also compassed with infirmity (law) and
needeth healing; For
Christ: is the end of the law (the end of infirmity),
doesn't need healing, but
rather is healer
to those who are compassed with infirmity (sick, due to their
legalism). Likewise the last of two priests and two priesthoods being
compared does not have
infirmity but rather is healer to the first who is himself also
compassed with
infirmity, even with the worst sort of infirmity called death, which
Christ: is the end of
the law (Romans 10:4) could not be holden of because he gave law no
place to law... Christ being
the perfect "man" to whom
the Lord (that Spirit: grace, is now the Lord)
will not impute sin: Romans 4:8; which is also to allegory say Christ
is the man of child/man, the grace of law/grace, to whom no law = no
sin = no infirmity applies.
Hebrews 5:3 And by reason
hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for
sins.
And by "reason hereof" followed by "he ought" speaks of
what Paul is concluding,
that both people and priest alike who mix grace + law
(good +
evil) are sinners since
law
not only imputes sin
(Romans 5:13), and unto all if any
do
(by one man sin and death came upon all, made all sinners,
none righteous), but law is also the strength of sin's death
sting
(1Cor
15:56). So law has a deadly sting, and therefore law is called
"the ministration of
death"
(2Cor 3). So such a highminded high priest ought
to offer, both for the people and for himself, gifts and sacrifices for
sins. Christ is the end of the law, is therefore also the end of such
gifts and sacrifices for sins. Abolition of law is also abolition of
the sacrifices, since it's the abolition of sins.
Hebrews 5:4 And no man taketh
this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as [was] Aaron.
And no "man" taketh "this" honour unto himself. Only a
child would do "this"
(impute sin and death to all),
such as more the "child" of "hell" spoken of in Mt 23:15, who sits in
Moses'
seat (law). So allegorically Paul's calling Aaron
an
ignorant child of hell(law), called of Law
(God of Aaron)
a high priest (who's highminded, minds high things like plural
heavens),
which not only resulted in people and priest being sinners, but all
being both saved + destroyed after by grace + law
(Jude 5).
Yet Paul did
this, as Terrorist Saul of Tarsus, and also as Wretched Paul, till he
put away childish things to become a
man
(1Cor 13); Albeit done in ignorance and with a zeal
for Law, even to keeping his law as pure as possible.
Hebrews 5:5 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.
This is where it gets tricky, for "have I" is a
question
not a statement, uncertain not certain; just as am I and I am are
mirrorly
allegorical for uncertain and certain existence. Christ didn't glorify
himself to be made an "high" priest like Aaron; For it would have made
him
and all people sinners. Note: it's important to remember Christ of
Jesus Christ is the end of the law which has both begin/end; Whereas
grace, which is eternal, has neither begin nor end.
Hebrews 5:6 As he saith also in
another [place], Thou [art] a priest for ever
after the order of
Melchisedec.
To properly understand the
allegory of
plural and
contrary Scriptures
we must first realize it's allegory (Galatians 4) and then start
looking
for the allegoric clues, like the "also" and the "after" mentioned
herein denoting such is the second part of allegoric before/after
scenarios, the grace part of
law/grace being after, the man part of child/man being after, the
understanding part of
ignorance/understanding being after. So "after" the order of
Melchisedec speaks of after-ward.
With respect to "also" we find be ye perfect in Matthew 5:48 is
therefore "also" merciful in
Luke 6:36; But law was neither merciful, nor perfect (Hebrews 3, 8,
10). So it
allegorically says wheresoever
this
gospel (of
this/that
gospels
of
this/that
Gods) is
preached throughout the whole world, "also that" shall be told, and for
comparison of
all
this/that, to know which is witch of
twain, know
that God is one
(not twain), the
only
true God of false/true Gods. So the other God lies (laws), and
thereby dies. True God neither lies nor dies, and never changes, nor
ever forsakes anyone.
With respect to "after" (of before/after priesthoods) we find the
priesthood talked about is "after" the order of Melchisedec, after the
priesthood of Aaron.
Two
priesthoods, two orders thereof, not Christ having the same
priesthood, for as it tells us in Hebrews 7:23 Melchisedec type priests
all
died, and from a bad case of life + death (grace + law), whereas Christ
(of through Jesus-> Christ) could not be holden of death for Christ
is
the end of
the law (of
begin/end of the law;
whereas grace has neither begin nor end).
No law = no sin = no
dead end...
that (of this/that) is the true (of false/true)
passion of the
Christ. The other wise (suffering, sacrifice) is earthy sensual
devilish wisdom.
Hebrews 5:7 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;
Remembering it's an allegory, we then get into
comparison of
flesh/spirit of Jesus/Christ, the Jesus thereof being the child part of
child/man
who would naturally (of natural/spiritual) cry and fear of such
fear/love of law/grace.
For Christ: the end of the law, is the spirit part of flesh/spirit, man
part of child/man, and has no law (no death to fear or cry about), as
law(enmity) got "abolished from his flesh"
(law got abolished from his grace + law) in Ephesians 2, whom we are in
Ephesians 5. Christ of through Jesus --> Christ
is as (grace + law) - law = (pure) grace. So, allegorically law got
abolished from us, for we are in him: in him is no sin (no law, sin, or
death). Jesus, of Jesus Christ, was born under law, and of woman.
Christ is the end of the law, and of being deceived. Jesus
spoke of both fear and fear not before the cross, but resurrected
Christ speaks only of peace after the cross... allegorically denoting
law (worketh wrath) got nailed to the cross as the enmity witch
produced "fear hath torment". Hence we are told that
God given
victory, to "
us",
is
through Jesus --> Christ,
the
Christ thereof being the end of the law, which
had an expiry date,
expired long ago now.
Hebrews 5:8 Though
he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the
things which he suffered;
Though he "were" a Son... a Son, even though he be heir of
all things (Heb 1), lord of all, being a child is no different than
being a servant (Galatians
4) "as long as he is a child" of child/man, which is as if a servant of
servant/son. Now "the" Son is
different than "a" Son; For "the Son" of God is the latter part of
this/that Sons of God in such things are an allegory. Please note he
"were" a Son, of Sons, and now is the Son, the man of child/man. It's
imperative
we get it: understanding, realizing such things are an allegory with a
moral; and give more earnest heed to what's being said. For it's not
only allegory, but a "mystery" to solve, so allegoric mystery to solve
in time, lest all perish instead of none perish.
Yet "learned he"? Again we have the question (not statement): "learned
he". A
statement would be he learned. So let us not get confused by thinking a
question is a statement, or that law is grace, or that child is man, or
that before is after. Christ did not need to learn obedience, by
suffering, but rather is obedience to His Grace, who will have mercy,
and not sacrifice. Christ is the end of the law neither obeyed nor
disobeyed any law at all; But rather gave law (sin and death thereof)
no place to exist, other than being a counter part in a shew, the part
to be
done away
when perfection of grace and truth comes. Grace and truth "came"
(already) by Jesus Christ, and for comparison to Law and lie given by
Moses. Law folk often like to
turn it around and beat their children, thinking suffering will help
such children learn obedience, and the obedience they demand is to
their unjust
and hypocritical grace + law... is not Christ like nor Godlike at all;
not
the man of child/man nor the understanding of
ignorance/understanding... for the evidence reveals legalistic
governmental christian residential schools produced bad results, and
such spiritual abuse takes a long time in healing.
Sacrifice, suffering thereof, are childish things to
put away in order to
become
a man kind (1Cor 13).
Hebrews 5:9 And
being made perfect, he became the author of eternal
salvation unto all them that obey him;
Of created/made, God said: let us "make" man (of
child/man). The child is created imperfect, as the law of law/grace is
imperfect. So "being made perfect" speaks of putting away the child
part of child/man, the law part of law/grace, the before part of
before/after, and being grace-us of them/us, all grace and no law at
all (just as
that God is all light and no darkness at all). Being made (of
created/made) perfect (of imperfect/perfect) he
became (of was/is) the author of eternal salvation (of temporal/eternal
salvations). Notice Christ is only the "author" of eternal salvation;
As Christ is only the second of three Saviours mentioned in the bible:
(i) Jesus: Saviour of Israel (of Jacob/Israel)
(ii) Christ: Saviour of the world x2 (for both Jews and Gentiles)
(iii)
God: our
Saviour, who will have two things: all men saved and all men aware
what they're saved from: law.
So reconciled is neither to two Sons Jesus, nor to false/true Christs,
but "to God". Be ye reconciled to God: 2Cor 5. Yet
reconciling the world
is done "in Christ", not in Jesus brought division (unrest), not peace
(rest); And by "that God".
Many, deceived by many, perceive Jesus is the author and finisher of
eternal salvation from other verses which speak of Jesus being the
author and
finisher of our faith. But here we note Christ, the head of the body,
is only the author of eternal salvation, something which involves both
head and body. For even though the head of the body may decide to have
eternal life, it doesn't happen till the body goes there (just as the
head can decide to go to the store, but doesn't get there till the body
takes it there). So Christ: the end of the law is the author of eternal
salvation, and we, his body, are to finish what Christ authored, once
and for all, by
going full steam ahead to us-ward, to no law = no dead end, to all live
(not some only) happily ever after (of before/after) and none perish by
such grace + law is as life + death = a dead end.
Christ is the author of eternal salvation. Eternal salvation? In the
allegorical
God shew there are
two sorts of
salvation, temporal and eternal. The temporal sort is life + death
= a dead end. Many say: such is life, but this is not true, for life is
eternal, eternally alive (God cannot die... allegory: Grace cannot
law). So being made perfect he became us (of them/us), and author of
"eternal" salvation (
no
law, no death). So when
childish
christians ask me: are you saved, I usually reply with: what sort
of salvation, the temporal or eternal sort? Noah was saved, but we also
find him among those in the hALL of shame of Heb 11: these all died and
received not the promise (eternal life). Those saved out of Egypt were
all destroyed after (Jude 5), denoting grace + law is as salvation +
destruction. Last Adam doesn't need salvation, but rather is salvation
to first Adam, and so none perish. Perhaps the salvation you're
proposing via
this
gospel of this/that
gospels is
temporal salvation, and to such Horeb-bull I say:
none for me thanks,
I'll stick with eternal life of eternal salvation which Christ:
the end of the law
is the author of, and go fwd only (of bwd/fwd) to
us-ward.
Hebrews 5:10 Called
of God an high priest after the order of
Melchisedec.
Again we have mention of "
after
the order of Melchisedec" as being what's "called of God", who called
both day(light) and night(darkness) to come (of go/come) now (of
then/now) and let us (all us now of them/us) reason together. Reason
together, look at the evidence, see what's evident from forty witnesses
giving testimony for 1,600 yrs (time it took to write Bible)... for
it's reason-able, compute-able, prove-able, know-able, and now-able.
What is? When grace (wisdom from above) is firstly
pure, then
peace-able: James 3:17. And notably peace with God and eternal
salvation are
through
Jesus --> Christ:
Christ thereof being defined as "the
end of the law" (no law = no sin = no death sting). So
reconciling the world
unto God is done "in Christ", not in two Sons Jesus brought
division (unrest), not peace (rest). For changeable Jesus is only
Saviour of Israel, but unchangeable Christ is Saviour of the world x2:
John 4:42; 1John 4:14.
Hebrews 5:11 Of
whom we have many things to say, and hard to be
uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.
Of ye/you, "ye are dull of hearing". Of ye (do err)/you
(made perfect, stablished, strengthened, settled), ye can't hear what
the unjust judge (law) saith to those asking to be avenged, nor what
the Spirit saith unto the churches; Because "ye" are dull of hearing,
dull of hearing, not sharp of hearing, nor sharper than any twoedged
sword, which the word of God: grace, is. So it's notably "ye" of ye/you
who must be born again, of incorruptible grace, not corruptible law.
Yet even you of ye/you can fall: Galatians 5:4. So the admonition is to
take heed, to give more earnest heed to what's said.
Of
ye/you,
it's "ye (do err) are dull of hearing", the
dblemindead
folk, the twofold sort, the childish sort, the grace + law sort. Ye is
the biblical allegorical plural of you, like Hebrews is the plural of
Hebrew, and the plural allegorically denotes grace + law. So Paul (a
Hebrew of Hebrews, one of twain, now man of child/man) writes to
the "Hebrews"(plural) calling such "ye" folk "dull of hearing", babes
not yet weaned of law, unlearned (even though study more than others),
unskillful in the word of righteousness: grace... is sharper than
any twoedged sword (smarter than any grace + law folk).
Yet who better to write to Hebrews than
Paul of Saul/Paul, himself
a Hebrew, and well versed in the law, but now fully able to prove his
point: grace is sufficient (no law req'd), and from the Scriptures
(written aforetime as scripture vs scripture), and to the Hebrews who
so love the old testament of old/new testaments. For the new is
contained in the old as one of twain, and therefore if it condemns the
old, it condemns itself also. Hence God did not send His Son to condemn
(law) the world, but rather that through him the world might be saved.
Selah.
I am (His Grace is) not come to destroy (law), but to fulfill (grace).
Selah.
To wit,
that
God, in Christ,
reconciling
the world, unto
himself, did
NOT impute sin, not even unto them (2Cor 5:19)... for such would impute
sin & death unto all, even unto himself. Law imputes sin (Rom 4:15;
5:13), is sin (Rom 14:23; Gal 3:12), is the strength of sin (1Cor
15:56) which has a dead sting (1Cor 15:56; James 1:15), so to not
impute sin is to law not, condemn not, judge not, since law back-fires,
for law worketh wrath, not peace, sacrifice, not mercy. Hence
the will of God
is: "
I will have
mercy (grace), and not sacrifice (law)": Hos 6:6; Mt 9:13.
Hebrews 5: 12 For when for the time
ye ought to be teachers, ye have
need that one teach you again which [be] the first principles
of the
oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of
strong meat.
Paul uses "sharpness" of exhortation (in your face
truth), but not to put down, rather to up lift and awake to
righteousness. Of times, then and now, now is the time ye folk
(Hebrews) ought to be teachers. But alas, they have need to be taught,
and by that one, which [be] the first principles (law of law/grace
worketh wrath of wrath/peace) of the oracles (law/grace) of God.
Notice the use of both ye and you here, "ye" have need that one teach
"you" again (for you obviously didn't get it: understanding). Ye shall
know the truth (not optional) and the truth shall make you free (a
make-ing of create/make... let us [of them/us] make [of create/make]
man [of child/man] is what God said in the beginning where the end is
declared (Is 46:10)... the end (of begin/end) of such before/after
being all get it: understanding, so none perish due to ignorance,
especially willing ignorance. K
nowing
the truth isn't optional as many ass u me. And
teaching
first, learning after, is preposterous order, the reverse of what
ought to be. It's ye folk (of ye/you) who go (of go/come) and teach (of
learn/teach), unaware the Scriptures were written aforetime for our
"learning": Rom 15:4, and there is only one teacher, master, of us all,
who said to make disciples (students) of all men (plural, the
dblemindead ye folk, the twofold).
Such child of hell folk (Matthew 23l) who notably sit in Moses seat:
Law, have need to
be taught, and such Hebrews who ought to be teachers by now are become
as babes who can only take milk, being not yet weaned from the law,
witch was a schoolmaster unto Christ: the end of the law, and law was
notably a
schoolmaster (Galatians 3) which failed every student (Romans 9:31;
Hebrews 7:23;
Hebrews 11: 13, 39). This schoolmaster should be dismissed.
Hebrews 5:13 For
every one that useth milk [is] unskillful in the word
of righteousness:
for he is a babe.
Every one (all of a first one man scenario in
Romans 5's two one man
scenarios)
that useth milk (law) [is] unskillful in the word of righteousness
(grace): for he is a babe (infant, not even a child, not of age). Babes
(Hebrews)
and
carnal
children (Corinthians), small c christians, are not yet weaned from
the law. The
allegory is the child of child/man uses milk of milk/meat, which is
law/grace (curse/bless). God did not say let them make child, but
rather let us make man, declaring the end (of begin/end) of such
before/after from the beginning... for love(God) is not blind, love
sees the
end from the begin as what's best of good better best, else it doesn't
even begin such a twainy shew. God saw only good x6, and very good the
7th time in Genesis 1. God did not see both good and evil, since both
good and evil ends bad.
In the same manner as above every one (all of first one man of twain)
that hangeth on a tree is cursed (cursed every one: Galatians 3), so
it's not wise, at least
not pure wisdom from above (of two wisdoms compared in James 3), to get
hung up on the
cross; For the exhortation is not to get hung up on the cross, but go
through it, through
Jesus -->Christ
to Christ: is the end of the law, to no law = no dead
end. Furthermore go through Christ --> God-ward afterward. So be ye
reconciled to God is as be ye reconciled (through Jesus --> Christ)
--> to God. Three stages of conversion. Eg: (Terrorist
Saul-->Wretched Paul)-->Paul The Apostle. Eg: (Fisherman
Simon-->Denying Peter)-->Converted Peter.
Hebrews 5:14 But
strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, [even] those who by reason of
use have their
senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
Strong meat, in your face truth, full proof based on all
the evidence, belongeth to them that are of full age, adults, man
kind of child/man, who by reason of use have their (five) senses
exercised to discern (a void) both good and evil (ends badly). JC
said God said: either make the tree good
or evil, not both, for both is an
oxyMORON with a BAD ending. Let's discern both good and evil, both
grace and law, life and death, ends badly; Because
law is both good and
evil.
Law is good, but law is also evil; Discern both good and evil ends
badly.
Law is holy,
but highminded law is unholy; Both holy and unholy ends bad.
Law is natural
and spiritual, but spiritual abuse is harmful. Grace is harmless.
Use your God given senses to discern both good and evil. If it looks
fishy, sounds like Horeb-bull, smells pewy, tastes
bitter-sweet, and feels like hell when swallowed, then it's probably
grace + law, law thereof being spiritual food poison since it
expired
l-o-n-g ago. Even Solomon the wise guy said such grace + law was
all vanity
(and vexation [frustration] of Spirit)
33
times in his Ecclesiastes. Sow: if it's dung, flush it. Law is
dung, so flush it. Selah.
