# Hebrews 05 General Notes
|
|
|
|
#### Structure and formatting
|
|
|
|
This chapter is a continuation of the teaching of the previous chapter.
|
|
|
|
Some translations set poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry. The ULB does this with the poetry in 5:5-6.

#### Special concepts in this chapter

|
|
##### High priest
|
|
|
|
Only a high priest could offer sacrifices so that God could forgive sins, so Jesus had to be a high priest. The law of Moses commanded that the high priest be from the tribe of Levi, but Jesus was from the tribe of Judah. God made him a priest like the priest Melchizedek, who lived at the time of Abraham, before there was a tribe of Levi.

|

|
The writer speaks of Christians who are only able to understand simple things about Jesus as if they were babies, who drink only milk and cannot eat solid food. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
