Hebrews 7:5 in Context — Hebrews 7
3 Sin padre, sin madre, sin linaje; que ni tiene principio de días, ni fin de vida, mas hecho semejante al Hijo de Dios, permanece sacerdote para siempre.
4 Mirad pues cuán grande fué éste, al cual aun Abraham el patriarca dió diezmos de los despojos.
5 Y ciertamente los que de los hijos de Leví toman el sacerdocio, tienen mandamiento de tomar del pueblo los diezmos según la ley, es á saber, de sus hermanos aunque también hayan salido de los lomos de Abraham.
6 Mas aquél cuya genealogía no es contada de ellos, tomó de Abraham los diezmos, y bendijo al que tenía las promesas.
7 Y sin contradicción alguna, lo que es menos es bendecido de lo que es más.
