If the PRIESTHOOD is CHANGED by The ELOHIM . . . Then, The ELOHIM also . . . CHANGED The LAW !

The priesthood was extremely important because it SET the TYPE. It prepared the people to RECOGNIZE the ultimate sacrifice , the LAMB+ of GOD Who+ takes away the sin of the world, the LORD Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA+.  

For the priesthood being changed,

there is made of necessity

a change also of The Law. 

Hebrews 7:12

In every translation made into English from the Greek, Latin, Hebrew, and Aramaic texts as well, this short verse states the same TRUTH . . . 

except in the Hebrew Roots translations !

From Andrew Roth’s AENT, Hebrews 7:12, quoted verbatim:

But as there is a change in the priesthood,

so also is there a change

in the instruction ( to the Levitical priests).

Mr. Roth’s footnote note: 

“Following the context, a change in the priestly line means a change in instructions that relate to priests.”

Footnote #35, page 408 , mis-pagination edition.

So, ACCORDING TO MR. ROTH'S HEBREW ROOTS TRANSLATION . . . were the priests given new instructions to offer sacrifices a different way ? [ upside down ?  legs severed ? head chopped off ?] 

Or, ACCORDING TO MR. ROTH'S HEBREW ROOTS TRANSLATION . . . were the changes of instructions that relate to priests dealing with the order of their courses, their rosters ?

What WERE these changes ? Surely the changes would have been documented SOMEWHERE in Scriptures. 

The priesthood was extremely important because it SET the TYPE. It prepared the people to RECOGNIZE the ultimate sacrifice , the LAMB+ of GOD Who+ takes away the sin of the world, the LORD Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA+.  

This pattern or type was minutely detailed: an unblemished lamb,  laid on the altar in a CERTAIN way, a WAY which pointed  observers to the Crucifixion.  

The Priests were NOT PERMITTED to veer from the correct observance of this pattern.

It was a sacrifice which had to be RE-NEWED every year, in order for a person to REMAIN IN THE COVENANT of The ELOHIM.

This Sacrifice was OBSERVED once every year to keep that TYPE before their eyes as a holy sacrifice. 

Therefore, we see that even to the Course of Abijah [ Abia ], recorded for Zacharias in Luke, every nuance of the Sacrificial LAW was observed by the Levitical priesthood and sacrifices under the LAW continued the same. 

Thus, we see that only TWO changes

to the Levitical priesthood

are found recorded in Scripture.

The FIRST CHANGE to the priesthood is The LORD Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA+ Who+ became our great High Priest, after the Order of Melchizadek, King+ of Righteousness, King+ of Salem ( Peace) .

This change of priesthood occurred AFTER His+ Crucifixion and Resurrection.

In this ETERNAL change, the High Priests were removed from their position , replaced by THE ETERNAL HIGH PRIEST, Who+ offered His+ own BLOOD once for all time, for the sins of the people. 

HE+ was accepted by GOD The FATHER Who sent HIM+.

His+ BLOOD was accepted as a PERPETUAL / CONTINUAL /  ETERNAL   sacrifice to cover the sins of the people.

For then must HE+ often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath HE+ appeared

to put away sin by the sacrifice of HIMSELF+. 

 

Hebrews 9:26

How much more shall the BLOOD of the M’SHIKHA+,

Who+ through The ETERNAL SPIRIT

offered HIMSELF+ without spot to GOD,

purge your conscience from dead works

to serve the LIVING GOD? 

Hebrews 9:14

The SECOND, ETERNAL-for-all-time change in the priesthood was the removal of the TRIBE OF LEVI as priests. Yes, the REMOVAL of the Tribe of Levi as priests.

They were removed because there was no longer an ACCEPTABLE sacrifice for sins able to be offered by them, after the LAMB+ of GOD, our LORD Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA+ was offered up for our sins.  

The Levitical priests were replaced by Followers of The LORD Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA . . . whether the Followers were Levites or not.

The Kosher Apostle Peter points this out to us:

Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, AN HOLY PRIESTHOOD, to offer up SPIRITUAL SACRIFICES, acceptable to GOD by Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA+. 1 Peter 2:5

But ye are a chosen generation, A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of HIM+ who hath called you out of darkness into HIS+ marvellous light: 1 Peter 2:9

Furthermore, the Apostle John, verifies this in his Revelation:

And hath made us kings / a kingdom of / and priests unto GOD and HIS+ FATHER; to HIM+ be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. Revelation 1:6

And hast made us unto our GOD kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. Revelation 5:10

Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of GOD and of CHRIST, and shall reign with him a thousand years. Revelation 20:6

Mr. Roth’s cryptic footnote is an extrapolated (i.e., stretched out or far-fetched) explanation based on the words and concepts which he himself ADDED into the HOLY SCRIPTURE in Hebrews 7:12.  

 In that foot-note, Mr. Roth explains what his own interpretation --- not translation --- means. 

Mr. Roth’s footnote for Hebrews 7:12 . . .

“Following the context, a change in the priestly line means a change in instructions that relate to priests.” 

Footnote #35, page 408 , mis-pagination edition.

It is hard to justify the Hebrew Roots translators’ ADDITIONS of both words and concepts to this verse. 

Purposefully done, these ADDITIONS attempt to maintain the doctrines of the Hebrew Roots camp which deny … well, they deny the entire message from the Book of Hebrews which was Written to Jewish Christians !  

After the NEW and Better Covenant was established through the BLOOD of Y’SHU+, the Old Covenant is vanished away. 

Hear The WORD+ : 

But now hath HE+ obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also HE+ is the MEDIATOR+ of a BETTER COVENANT, which was established upon better promises. 

Hebrews 8:6

+ + +

For if that FIRST covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.

Hebrews 8:7

In that HE saith, A NEW covenant, HE hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away. 

Hebrews 8:13

The writer of the Book of Hebrews ~ perhaps Barnabas, but whomever he was ~ had to be writing under the Inspiration --- the In-Breathing --- of GOD, the HOLY SPIRIT, according to Scripture, for we know that:  

ALL Scripture is given by inspiration of GOD, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

2 Timothy 3:16

How can mankind DARE to change the Living, Breathing WORD+ of GOD which was directly INFUSED by The HOLY SPIRIT ? 

Do our modern Hebrew Roots translators KNOW MORE than The ELOHIM ? Or, the Anointed Writer of the Book of Hebrews. . . written expressly FOR and TO the Jewish Christians ?

Here is a translation of a few other verses from chapter 7 of Hebrews, translating into English from the Aramaic from a very literal translation,  The Holy Aramaic Scriptures , found online at 

https://theholyaramaicscriptures.weebly.com/heb-7.html

  ܐܠܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܗܘܐ ܫܘܚܠܦܐ ܒܟܘܡܪܘܬܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܗܘܐ ܫܘܚܠܦܐ ܐܦ ܒܢܡܘܣܐ
 

12 But, as there was a change in The Priesthood, thus there was a change also in The Law.  

[ B’namusa = in the Law,

origin of this Aramaic word  ܒܢܡܘܣܐ  is Greek]
Hebrews 7:12

ܡܕܡ ܓܝܪ ܠܐ ܓܡܪ ܢܡܘܣܐ ܥܠ ܕܝܢ ܚܠܦܘܗܝ ܣܒܪܐ ܕܡܝܬܪ ܡܢܗ ܕܒܗ ܡܬܩܪܒܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ

19 For, nothing was fulfilled by The Law, but, abounding Hope entered in its place, from which we are brought near unto Alaha {God}.
Hebrews 7:19

https://theholyaramaicscriptures.weebly.com/heb-7.html

 Furthermore, the KJV states in Hebrews 10: 

Heb 10:10  By the which Will we are sanctified through the offering of the Body of JESUS CHRIST once for all. 

Heb 10:11  And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: 

Heb 10:12  But This MAN+, after HE+ had offered ONE SACRIFICE+ for sins for ever, sat down on the Right Hand of GOD; 

Heb 10:13  From henceforth expecting till HIS+ enemies be made His+ footstool. 

Heb 10:14  For by ONE OFFERING+  HE+ hath perfected for ever

them that are sanctified. 

Andrew Roth, AENT, stated in his footnote that the CONTEXT meant only a change of instructions to the priests. 

Verbatim, Mr. Roth’s footnote at Hebrews 7:12, again:

“Following the context, a change in the priestly line means a change in instructions that relate to priests.”

Footnote #35, page 408 , mis-pagination edition.

Therefore, let us look CLOSELY AT THE CONTEXT in which Hebrews 7:12 is written, in Aramaic and its accurate English translation, from :

HEBREWS

Chapter 7
ܗܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܡܠܟܝܙܕܩ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܠܟ ܫܠܝܡ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܡܪܝܡܐ ܘܗܘ ܐܪܥܗ ܠܐܒܪܗܡ ܟܕ ܗܦܟ ܡܢ ܚܪܒܐ ܕܡܠܟܐ ܘܒܪܟܗ

1 Now, this Malkezdeq was The King of Shalem, The Kumra d'Alaha Marayma {The Priest of God, The Highest}, and he met Abraham after he returned from the slaughter of the Kings, and blessed him.

  ܘܠܗ ܦܪܫ ܐܒܪܗܡ ܡܥܣܪܐ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܥܡܗ ܡܬܦܫܩ ܕܝܢ ܫܡܗ ܡܠܟܐ ܕܟܐܢܘܬܐ ܘܬܘܒ ܡܠܟ ܫܠܝܡ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܠܟܐ ܕܫܠܡܐ

2 And unto him, Abraham separated a tenth from every thing that was with him. Moreover, his name, being explained, is ‘King of Righteousness,’ and furthermore, ‘Malek-Shalem’, which is, ‘King of Peace.’

  ܕܠܐ ܐܒܘܗܝ ܘܠܐ ܐܡܗ ܐܬܟܬܒܘ ܒܫܪܒܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܪܫܝܬܐ ܕܝܘܡܘܗܝ ܘܠܐ ܫܘܠܡܐ ܕܚܝܘܗܝ ܐܠܐ ܒܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܡܩܘܝܐ ܟܘܡܪܘܬܗ ܠܥܠܡ

3 Neither his father, nor his mother is written in the genealogies; and neither the beginning of his days, nor the end of his life, but, in the pattern of The Son+ of Alaha {God}, remains a Kumra {a Priest} forever.

  ܚܙܘ ܕܝܢ ܟܡܐ ܪܒ ܗܢܐ ܕܐܒܪܗܡ ܪܫ ܐܒܗܬܐ ܠܗ ܝܗܒ ܡܥܣܪܐ ܘܪܫܝܬܐ
 

4 But see how great this one was, that Abraham, the head of the fathers, gave unto him a tenth; the firstfruits.  

ܐܝܠܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܡܢ ܒܢܝ ܠܘܝ ܕܡܩܒܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܟܘܡܪܘܬܐ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܢܡܘܣܐ ܕܢܣܒܘܢ ܡܥܣܪܐ ܡܢ ܥܡܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܚܝܗܘܢ ܟܕ ܐܦ ܗܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܚܨܗ ܕܐܒܪܗܡ ܢܦܩܘ

5 For, those who from the sons of Levi, who was receiving The Priesthood, have a commandment, that is for them a law, that they receive a tenth from the Ama {the People}, those from their brothers, whereas they also have been cast forth from the loins of Abraham.

  ܗܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܟܬܝܒ ܒܫܪܒܬܗܘܢ ܡܥܣܪܐ ܫܩܠ ܡܢ ܐܒܪܗܡ ܘܒܪܟܗ ܠܗܘ ܕܩܒܠ ܡܘܠܟܢܐ
 

6 But, This ONE+, Who+ isn't written in the genealogies, took up a tenth from Abraham, and blessed that one who received The Promise.

  ܕܠܐ ܚܪܝܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܗܘ ܕܒܨܝܪ ܡܬܒܪܟ ܡܢ ܗܘ ܕܡܝܬܪ ܡܢܗ
 

7 Yet, it isn't disputed that he whom is inferior, is blessed from the One whom he has benefited from.  

ܘܗܪܟܐ ܒܢܝ ܐܢܫܐ ܕܡܝܬܝܢ ܢܣܒܝܢ ܡܥܣܪܐ ܠܗܠ ܕܝܢ ܗܘ ܕܐܣܗܕ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܟܬܒܐ ܕܚܝ ܗܘ
 

8 And here, the sons of men, who die, receive the tenths, but there, of Him+ Who+ is witnessed concerning The Kathaba {The Scriptures}, that HE+ Lives.

  ܘܐܝܟ ܐܢܫ ܢܐܡܪ ܒܝܕ ܐܒܪܗܡ ܐܦ ܠܘܝ ܗܘ ܕܡܥܣܪܐ ܢܣܒ ܗܘܐ ܐܦ ܗܘ ܐܬܥܣܪ
 

9 Accordingly, a man might say, through Abraham even Levi, who receives the tenth, himself was also tithing,

  ܥܕܟܝܠ ܓܝܪ ܒܚܨܗ ܗܘܐ ܕܐܒܘܗܝ ܟܕ ܐܪܥܗ ܠܡܠܟܝܙܕܩ
 

10 for, he was still in the loins of his father, when he met Malkezdeq.

  ܐܠܘ ܗܟܝܠ ܓܡܝܪܘܬܐ ܒܝܕ ܟܘܡܪܘܬܐ ܕܠܘܝܐ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܗܘܬ ܕܒܗ ܣܝܡ ܢܡܘܣܐ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܠܡܢܐ ܡܬܒܥܐ ܗܘܐ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܢܩܘܡ ܒܕܡܘܬܗ ܕܡܠܟܝܙܕܩ ܐܡܪ ܕܝܢ ܕܒܕܡܘܬܗ ܕܐܗܪܘܢ ܢܗܘܐ

11 If, therefore, perfection was through The Priesthood of The Levites, being brought into place a Law for the world, why was another Kumra {Priest} required to be established in the pattern of Malkezdeq, yet saying, "In the pattern of Aaron, He will be?"

  ܐܠܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܗܘܐ ܫܘܚܠܦܐ ܒܟܘܡܪܘܬܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܗܘܐ ܫܘܚܠܦܐ ܐܦ ܒܢܡܘܣܐ
 

12 But, as there was a change in The Priesthood, thus there was a change also in The Law.  

ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܬܐܡܪ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܗܠܝܢ ܡܢ ܫܪܒܬܐ ܗܘ ܐܚܪܬܐ ܐܬܝܠܕ ܕܐܢܫ ܡܡܬܘܡ ܡܢܗ ܠܐ ܫܡܫ ܒܡܕܒܚܐ

13 For, HE+, concerning whom these were spoken, was from another Tribe; from which no man ever born had served at The Altar.

  ܓܠܝܐ ܗܝ ܓܝܪ ܕܡܢ ܝܗܘܕܐ ܕܢܚ ܡܪܢ ܡܢ ܫܪܒܬܐ ܕܠܐ ܐܡܪ ܥܠܝܗ ܡܘܫܐ ܡܕܡ ܥܠ ܟܘܡܪܘܬܐ

14 For, it is revealed, that from Yehuda {Judah}, Maran {Our Lord} arose, from The Tribe about which Mushe {Moses} spoke nothing concerning The Priesthood.  

ܘܝܬܝܪܐܝܬ ܬܘܒ ܝܕܝܥܐ ܒܗܝ ܕܐܡܪ ܕܒܕܡܘܬܗ ܕܡܠܟܝܙܕܩ ܩܐܡ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ
 

15 Furthermore, it is especially known, in that which was spoken: “In the pattern of Malkezdeq,” that another Kumra {Priest} is established,  

ܗܘ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܒܢܡܘܣܐ ܕܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܦܓܪܢܝܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܠܐ ܒܚܝܠܐ ܕܚܝܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܫܬܪܝܢ
 

16 Who+ wasn't established in The Law of carnal commands, but rather, in The Power of a Life indissoluble.

ܡܣܗܕ ܓܝܪ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܕܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܒܕܡܘܬܗ ܕܡܠܟܝܙܕܩ

17 For, HE witnesses concerning Him+, that “You are a Kumra {a Priest} forever, in the pattern of Malkezdeq.”

ܫܘܚܠܦܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܗܘܐ ܠܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܡܛܠ ܡܚܝܠܘܬܗ ܘܕܝܘܬܪܢ ܠܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܒܗ
 

18 But, the transformation * that was for the former command was because of the weakness, and that there was no gain in it.  
*[ same word as CHANGE in verse 12.]

ܡܕܡ ܓܝܪ ܠܐ ܓܡܪ ܢܡܘܣܐ ܥܠ ܕܝܢ ܚܠܦܘܗܝ ܣܒܪܐ ܕܡܝܬܪ ܡܢܗ ܕܒܗ ܡܬܩܪܒܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ
 

19 For, nothing was fulfilled by The Law, but, abounding Hope entered in its place, from which we are brought near unto Alaha {God}.

ܘܫܪܪܗ ܠܢ ܒܡܘܡܬܐ
 

20 And He established it for us, by an Oath.

ܗܢܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܠܐ ܡܘܡܬܐ ܗܘܘ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܒܡܘܡܬܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܒܝܕ ܕܘܝܕ ܕܝܡܐ ܡܪܝܐ ܘܠܐ ܢܕܓܠ ܕܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܒܕܡܘܬܗ ܕܡܠܟܝܙܕܩ
 

21 For those, without an oath, were Kumre {Priests}, but, This ONE+ by an Oath, as HE spoke unto HIM+ through David: “MarYa {The Lord-YHWH} has sworn, not lying, You are a Kumra {a Priest} forever, in the pattern of Malkezdeq.”

ܗܢܐ ܟܠܗ ܡܝܬܪܐ ܕܝܬܩܐ ܗܕܐ ܕܗܘܐ ܒܗ ܥܪܒܐ ܝܫܘܥ
 

22 All these things make an excellent Covenant, these being secured by ESHU+ {YESHUA}.

ܘܗܢܘܢ ܗܘܘ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܣܓܝܐܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܡܝܬܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܘܠܐ ܡܫܬܒܩܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܕܢܩܘܘܢ
 

23 There were many Kumre {Priests}, because of death, not being allowed to remain.

ܗܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܩܝܡ ܠܐ ܥܒܪܐ ܟܘܡܪܘܬܗ
 

24 But, This ONE+, because remaining Eternally, His+ Priesthood does not pass away.

ܘܡܫܟܚ ܠܡܚܝܘ ܠܥܠܡ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܬܩܪܒܝܢ ܒܐܝܕܗ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܚܝ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܒܟܠܙܒܢ ܘܡܣܩ ܨܠܘܬܐ ܚܠܦܝܗܘܢ
 

25 HE+ is able to save forever those who draw near, through HIM+, unto Alaha {God}, for, HE+ is alive and is always sending up prayers in their place.

ܕܐܝܟ ܗܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܐܦ ܙܕܩ ܗܘܐ ܠܢ ܕܟܝܐ ܕܠܐ ܒܝܫܘ ܘܕܠܐ ܛܘܠܫܐ ܕܦܪܝܩ ܡܢ ܚܛܗܐ ܘܡܪܝܡ ܠܥܠ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ

26 For, a Kumra {a Priest} such as THIS+, was fitting for us, WHO+ was pure, not wicked; with no blemish, abstaining from sin; concerning WHOM+, is exalted from the Shmaya {the Heavens}.

ܘܠܝܬ ܠܗ ܐܘܠܨܢܐ ܟܠܝܘܡ ܐܝܟ ܪܒܝ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܕܠܘܩܕܡ ܚܠܦ ܚܛܗܘܗܝ ܢܩܪܒ ܕܒܚܐ ܘܗܝܕܝܢ ܚܠܦ ܥܡܐ ܗܕܐ ܓܝܪ ܥܒܕܗ ܚܕܐ ܙܒܢ ܒܢܦܫܗ ܕܩܪܒ

27 For, not unto HIMSELF+ is the daily distress, as was for the Rabay Khumre {the Priest's Chiefs}, who first, in place of their own sins, drew near to sacrifice, and afterwards in place of the Ama {the People}, for, this HE+ performed One Time, in His+ own Soul that was drawn near.

ܢܡܘܣܐ ܓܝܪ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܗܘ ܟܪܝܗܐ ܡܩܝܡ ܟܘܡܪܐ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܡܘܡܬܐ ܕܗܘܬ ܒܬܪ ܢܡܘܣܐ ܒܪܐ ܓܡܝܪܐ ܠܥܠܡ

28 For, The Law established weak mankind for its Kumre {Priests}, but, The Word of The Oath, which was after The Law, The SON+ has perfected forever.

Thank you, LORD, for setting Thy Word+ upon us, that we may heed Thy UnBlemished SON+ and lay to heart His+ UnAdulterated WORD.

Thy Word+ is a Lamp unto my feet

and a Light unto my path.

Psalm 119:105
