“And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.”
Hebrews 7:8 (KJV)
Commentary on Hebrews 7:8
Here (Levitical system) 'mortal men receive tithes,' but there (Melchizedek) one 'of whom it is witnessed that he lives.' The contrast is mortality vs. life. Levitical priests die and are replaced; Melchizedek, in the Genesis account, appears without record of death, typifying Christ who 'lives forever' (7:16, 24). Christ's unending priesthood provides permanent intercession and access to God.
