Hebrews 5:9-14 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

9. And he became our perfect high priest. He gives eternal salvation to all who obey him.

10. And God made Jesus high priest, a priest like Melchizedek.

11. We have much to say about this. But it is hard to explain because you are so slow to understand.

12. You have had enough time so that by now you should be teachers. But you need someone to teach you again the first lessons of God’s message. You still need the teaching that is like milk. You are not ready for solid food.

13. Anyone who lives on milk is still a baby. He knows nothing about right teaching.

14. But solid food is for those who are grown up. They are mature enough to know the difference between good and evil.
