Hebrews 5 · Grade 3

Called by God

Name Date

Read the Story

Every high priest is chosen from among men to serve God for the people. He can deal gently with those who are ignorant and going astray. Nobody takes this honor on himself, but he is called by God, just like Aaron was.

Christ also did not make himself a high priest. God said to him, You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek. Though he was a Son, yet he learned obedience by the things which he suffered.

The letter says the readers were slow to listen. They still needed milk instead of solid food. But solid food is for those who are full grown, who have practiced telling good from evil.
