Commentary on Hebrews 7:15

It becomes 'even more evident' when considering that Christ arose 'in the likeness of Melchizedek.' The Greek 'perissoteron' (more abundantly) emphasizes the clarity of the argument. Christ's priesthood is patterned after Melchizedek's, not Aaron's. The word 'likeness' (Greek 'homoiotēta') shows typological correspondence - Melchizedek foreshadowed Christ, who is the reality.
