To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
253 proving that Christ was duly called to His office as our High Priest, the author of the Epistle to the Hebrews argues from the appointment of Aaron. " No man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron. So also Christ glorified not Him- self to be made an High Priest ; but He that said unto Him, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten Thee " (chap. V. 5, 6). Could there be a stronger testimony to the divine authentication of the Aaronic priesthood than this... ? The call of Aaron is the norm and pattern of the appointment of Christ Himself to the mediatorial function of His own glorious high-priesthood. The doctrine of this epistle, therefore, gives no countenance to the theory that would relegate the Torah by which a high priest is distinguished from other priests to the days of the Babylonish exile. The high priest it fixes upon, as furnishing, in his appointment, the type and pattern of Christ's vocation, is Aaron himself; and this selection of Aaron, for this purpose, proves that the Levitical priesthood, with its priestly distinctions, was, from the days of Aaron, an institution as truly sanctioned of God as was the priesthood of our Redeemer.
