In Context

7 But without any dispute the less is blessed of the better.

8 And here men that die receive tithes; but there one, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.

9 And, so to say, through Abraham even Levi, who receiveth tithes, hath paid tithes;

10 for he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchizedek met him.

12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
