Me:
Without father (one thing), without mother (another thing) AND without
genealogy YET ANOTHER THING!

Jesus had all of these things BTW ;-)  How then was His priesthood like
that of this man's?  It wouldn't end.  That is not all, consider:

Numbers 25
10 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 

11 Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned
my wrath away from the children of Israel, while he was zealous for my sake
among them, that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy. 

12 Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace: 

13 And he shall have it, and his seed after him, even the covenant of an
everlasting priesthood; because he was zealous for his God, and made an
atonement for the children of Israel.

The Levitiacal Priesthood IS everlasting through the desendants of Phinehas
but he had a mother and father and a beginning and end...
