Hebrews 7:13

Hebrews 7:13. The writer now proves the completeness of the change of the priesthood.

For he of whom (not ‘to whom,' Dr. J. Brown and others, the preposition being used to denote that to which a word or thing refers) these things (the words in Psalms 110) are said (see the end of Hebrews 7:11) hath partaken of (better than ‘pertaineth'), hath become a member of, a different tribe (the words describe an already existing fact, and intimate that he had joined the tribe), of which tribe no man hath ever (the full force of the corrected text) given attendance (the word means to bestow labour or attention upon anything, see 1 Timothy 4:13) at the altar.
