So there it says he has no descent but then in verse 6 it says he does have a descent but it is not counted. In other words, he did not have the proper pedigree to be a priest just like Jesus did not have the proper pedigree to be a priest.
Jesus was the first to open up the womb and was considered by the old
Testament to be a firstfruit.
