Hebrews 5:2

← Hebrews 5:1	Hebrews 5:2 (KJV)	Hebrews 5:3 →
For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things [pertaining] to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:	Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.	And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.

Strong's References

• G50 — ἀγνοέω (agnoéō, ag-no-eh'-o): I do not know, am ignorant of — from Α (as a negative particle) and νοιέω; not to know (through lack of information or intelligence); by implication, to ignore (through disinclination):--(be) ignorant(-ly), not know, not understand, unknown.

• G2532 — καί (kaí, kahee): and, even, also, namely — apparently, a primary particle, having a copulative and sometimes also a cumulative force; and, also, even, so then, too, etc.; often used in connection (or composition) with other particles or small words:--and, also, both, but, even, for, if, or, so, that, then, therefore, when, yet.
• G3356 — μετριοπαθέω (metriopathéō, met-ree-op-ath-eh'-o): I bear gently with, have compassion — from a compound of the base of μετρίως and πάθος; to be moderate in passion, i.e. gentle (to treat indulgently):--have compassion.
