Hebrews 7:9 in Context — Hebrews 7
7 Or c’est sans contredit l’inférieur qui est béni par le supérieur.
8 Et ici, ceux qui perçoivent la dîme sont des hommes mortels; mais là, c’est celui dont il est attesté qu’il est vivant.
9 De plus, Lévi, qui perçoit la dîme, l’a payée, pour ainsi dire, par Abraham;
10 car il était encore dans les reins de son père, lorsque Melchisédek alla au-devant d’Abraham.
11 Si donc la perfection avait été possible par le sacerdoce Lévitique, car c’est sur ce sacerdoce que repose la loi donnée au peuple, qu’était-il encore besoin qu’il parût un autre sacrificateur selon l’ordre de Melchisédek, et non selon l’ordre d’Aaron?
