0:47.0 | something else doesn't suit you. Eric, last week we got into Melchizedek, high priestliness, prophet priest and king. Can anyone but Jesus be all three? |
1:02.0 | No. |
1:02.5 | By the way, the answer is no. We got into all that, and we're going to continue talking about some of that because we kind of left off in the tail end of a thought here. |

2:20.3 | argument for why Jesus's high priesthood is so much better and so much more preferable to |
2:26.4 | the high priesthood that they may be tempted to go back to in the Levitical system. Yep, that's right. |
2:34.0 | So he says, and then again, of course, that he's exalted above the heaven. |
2:37.7 | So in every way, he's better. |
