"For there is an annulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and uselessness"
— Hebrews 7:18, World English Bible
“For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.”
“For there is a disannulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and unprofitableness ”
“On the one hand a former command is set aside because it is weak and useless,”
“There is indeed a setting aside of the former commandment, because of the weakness and unprofitableness thereof:”
“So the law which went before is put on one side, because it was feeble and without profit.”
“For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.”
This is yet more abundantly evident, if after the likeness of Melchizedek there arises another priest,
who has been made, not after the law of a fleshly commandment, but after the power of an endless life:
for it is testified, "You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek."
For there is an annulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and uselessness
(for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.
Inasmuch as he was not made priest without the taking of an oath
(for they indeed have been made priests without an oath), but he with an oath by him that says of him, "The Lord swore and will not change his mind, 'You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.'"
