Hebrews 7:23

And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:

Many, indeed, have been made priests, because they are hindered from continuing by death.

And they indeed have been made priests many in number, because that by death they are hindered from continuing:

and those indeed are many who have become priests, because by death they are hindered from remaining;

Now there have been many other priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office.
