Now a high priest is a man chosen to represent other human beings in their dealings with God. He presents their gifts to God and offers their sacrifices for sins.
Heb.5.2
Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.
Heb.5.2
should be able to deal gently with their failings, since he knows what it's like from his own experience.
Heb.5.2

Heb.5.5
Neither did Christ presume to set himself up as high priest, but was set apart by the One who said to him, "You're my Son; today I celebrate you!"
Heb.5.5
So Christ also did not take upon himself the glory of becoming a high priest. But God said to him, "You are my Son; today I have become your Father. "
Heb.5.5
So also Christ did not glorify Himself to become High Priest, but it was He who said to Him: "You are My Son, Today I have begotten You."
