Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(12) This verse connects itself with the parenthesis in Hebrews 7:11. "For if the priesthood is changed there takes place also of necessity a change of law." It is no light matter to speak of the order of Aaron as set aside: this carries with it a change of law.Parallel Commentaries ...GreekFor [when]γὰρ (gar)ConjunctionStrong's 1063: For.
