In context

24 But this, for that he continueth for ever, hath an everlasting priesthood:
25 Whereby he is able also to save for ever them that come to God by him; always living to make intercession for us.

27 Who needeth not daily (as the other priests) to offer sacrifices, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, in offering himself.
28 For the law maketh men priests, who have infirmity: but the word of the oath (which was since the law) the Son who is perfected for evermore.
