“And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:”
Hebrews 7:23 (KJV)
Commentary on Hebrews 7:23
The Levitical priesthood required 'many priests' because 'they were not suffered to continue by reason of death.' Physical death constantly necessitated new priests. This limitation revealed the temporary, inadequate nature of the old covenant priesthood. The succession of priests pointed to the need for an eternal priest.
