Note: Hbr 7:4-9 shows the superiority of the Melchizedek priesthood to the Levitical, in that
(1) Abraham, the ancestor of the Levites, paid "tithes" to Melchizedek (Gen 14:20);
(2) Melchizedek, whose genealogy is outside that of the Levites, took "tithes" of Abraham, the recipient himself of the Divine promises;
(3) whereas death is the natural lot of those who receive "tithes," the death of Melchizedek is not recorded;
(4) the Levites who received "tithes" virtually paid them through Abraham to Melchizedek.
