Priesthood of Christ, Aaron & Melchisedec Comparison Series: 3

 "He shows that He was called of God to be an High Priest "as was Aaron;" Hebrews 5:1-5
Like Aaron and his sons, 
---He took upon Him flesh and blood, the seed of Abraham, "was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin," was made "perfect through suffering," and "in all things it behooved Him to be made like unto His brethren; that He might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people;" Hebrews 2:4
Both were ordained for men in things pertaining to God: that (they might) offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins; Hebrews 5:1; 8:3."
