apostle_n speak_v there_o metaphorical_a allude_v to_o the_o priesthood_n of_o aaron_n and_o the_o leviticall_a oblation_n that_o as_o the_o priest_n do_v offer_v the_o oblation_n that_o be_v bring_v

the_o three_o and_o last_o use_n of_o this_o point_n be_v that_o which_o 3_o the_o apostle_n make_v see_v we_o have_v not_o a_o high_a priest_n which_o can_v be_v touch_v with_o the_o feel_n of_o
