WORD Research this...Hebrews 7
- 1 For this Melchisedech was king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him:
- 2 To whom also Abraham divided the tithes of all: who first indeed by interpretation is king of justice: and then also king of Salem, that is, king of peace:
- 3 Without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but likened unto the Son of God, continueth a priest for ever.
- 4 Now consider how great this man is, to whom also Abraham the patriarch gave tithes out of the principal things.
- 5 And indeed they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is to say, of their brethren: though they themselves also came out of the loins of Abraham.
- 6 But he, whose pedigree is not numbered among them, received tithes of Abraham and blessed him that had the promises.
- 7 And without all contradiction, that which is less is blessed by the better.
- 8 And here indeed, men that die receive tithes: but there, he hath witness that he liveth.
- 9 And (as it may be said) even Levi who received tithes paid tithes in Abraham:
- 10 For he was yet in the loins of his father when Melchisedech met him.
- 11 If then perfection was by the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchisedech: and not be called according to the order of Aaron?
- 12 For the priesthood being translated, it is necessary that a translation also be made of the law,
- 13 For he of whom these things are spoken is of another tribe, of which no one attended on the altar.
- 14 For it is evident that our Lord sprung out of Juda: in which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priests.
- 15 And it is yet far more evident: if according to the similitude of Melchisedech there ariseth another priest,
- 16 Who is made, not according to the law of a law of a carnal commandment, but according to the power of an indissoluble life.
- 17 For he testifieth: Thou art a priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedech.
- 18 There is indeed a setting aside of the former commandment, because of the weakness and unprofitableness thereof:
- 19 For the law brought nothing to perfection: but a bringing in of a better hope, by which we draw nigh to God.
- 20 And inasmuch as it is not without an oath (for the others indeed were made priests without an oath:
- 21 But this with an oath, by him that said unto him: The Lord hath sworn and he will not repent: Thou art a priest for ever).
- 22 By so much is Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
- 23 And the others indeed were made many priests, because by reason of death they were not suffered to continue:
- 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.
- 26 For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens:
- 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.

Basic Hash Usage Explained
At getBible, we've established a robust system to keep our API synchronized with the Crosswire project's modules. Let me explain how this integration works in simple terms.
We source our Bible text directly from the Crosswire modules. To monitor any updates, we generate "hash values" for each chapter, book, and translation. These hash values serve as unique identifiers that change only when the underlying content changes, thereby ensuring a tight integration between getBible and the Crosswire modules.
Every month, an automated process runs for approximately three hours. During this window, we fetch the latest Bible text from the Crosswire modules. Subsequently, we compare the new hash values and the text with the previous ones. Any detected changes trigger updates to both our official getBible hash repository and the Bible API for all affected translations. This system has been operating seamlessly for several years.
Once the updates are complete, any application utilizing our Bible API should monitor the hash values at the chapter, book, or translation level. Spotting a change in these values indicates that they should update their respective systems.
Hash values can change due to various reasons, including textual corrections like adding omitted verses, rectifying spelling errors, or addressing any discrepancies flagged by the publishers maintaining the modules at Crosswire.
The Crosswire initiative, also known as the SWORD Project, is the "source of truth" for getBible. Any modifications in the Crosswire modules get reflected in our API within days, ensuring our users access the most precise and current Bible text. We pledge to uphold this standard as long as getBible exists and our build scripts remain operational.
We're united in our mission to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the Bible text. If you have questions or require additional information, please use our support system. We're here to assist and will respond promptly.
Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of the getBible community.
