‏ Hebrews 8:3

Is appointed ( καθιστατα ). As in 5:1.

To offer ( εις το προσφερειν ). Articular infinitive accusative case with εις as is common while ινα προσφερη ( ινα with present active subjunctive) for purpose in 5:1, with δωρα τε κα θυσιας as there.

It is necessary ( αναγκαιον ). A moral and logical necessity (from αναγκη necessity) as seen in Ac 13:46; Php 1:24.

This high priest also ( κα τουτον ). "This one also," no word for high priest, accusative of general reference with the infinitive εχειν (have).

Somewhat to offer ( τ ω προσενεγκη ). Second aorist active subjunctive of προσφερω (verse 3). Vulgate aliquid quod offerat. The use of the subjunctive in this relative clause is probably volitive as in Ac 21:16; Heb 12:28 (possibly here merely futuristic), but note ο προσφερε (present indicative) in 9:7. See Robertson, Grammar, p. 955.
