dc.description.abstractThere occurs in the Epistle to the Hebrews a biblical hapaxlegomenon which has considerably exercised both scholars and translators. This word is "metriopathein", used by the author of the Epistle to describe one of Christ's priestly characteristics and hence having for us a significance beyond the merely scholarly. "For every high-priest taken from among men is appointed for men in the things pertaining to God, that he may offer gifts and sacrifices for sin. He is able to have compassion on the ignorant and erring, because he also is beset with weakness and by reason thereof is obliged to offer for sins, as on behalf of the people, so also for himself" (Heb. 5, 1 - 4). This is the Confraternity translation of the text in question.en_GB
