Scripture Content

For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed to act on behalf of men in relation to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to him who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverence. But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.
