5:9 God qualified him as a perfect High Priest: As used in Hebrews, perfect means “complete” or “mature” (see 2:10; 5:14; 7:11; 9:9-11). Jesus, through his sufferings, was qualified to be the source of eternal salvation for all those who obey him. • High Priest is not in the Greek text, but it is implied. • As the Son obeyed the Father (5:8), submitting completely to the Father’s will, so those who come to him for salvation must obey him.
