Hebrews 5

Under each verse is the Greek source text word by word: each word with its transliteration, English gloss, Extended Strong's number and morphology code, and the editions that contain it: NA28 (Nestle-Aland), TR (Textus Receptus), or “other” where neither does. Where the TR has a different word, it is given too. Source text: STEPBible's TAGNT (CC BY 4.0)

Tap a word to mark it throughout the chapter; a morphology code explains itself the same way (in English).

  1. 1For every High Priest is chosen from among men, and is appointed to act on behalf of men in matters relating to God, in order to offer both gifts and sin-offerings,
