Note 1 topic: translate-unknown
πρόδρομος
/a/_forerunner
Here, the word forerunner refers to a person who “runs” in front of everyone else. The author is identifying Jesus as the first person to go to a specific place, and the implication is that he opens the way or leads others to enter that same place. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that refers to a person who leads others to a place. Alternate translation: “as the one who leads others” or “as one who blazes a trail”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure
πρόδρομος ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν εἰσῆλθεν
/a/_forerunner for us came_in
Here, the phrase on our behalf could modify: (1) entered. In this case, Jesus has entered for our sake, or to help us. Alternate translation: “has entered for our sake as a forerunner” (2) forerunner. In this case, Jesus opened the way on our behalf. Alternate translation: “has entered as a forerunner who leads us”
Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-time-sequential
γενόμενος
/having/_become
Here, the phrase having become introduces action that could happen: (1) before Jesus entered. In this case, God makes him a high priest, and then he enters the heavenly sanctuary. Alternate translation: “already having become” (2) at the same time as Jesus entered. In this case, the “entering” and the “becoming” describe the same thing or happen at the same time. Alternate translation: “when he became” or “at the same time as he became”
κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισέδεκ
according_to the order ˱of˲_Melchisedek
Here the author uses the same words he used in 5:6, 10. You should translate this phrase in exactly the same way as you did in those verses.
6:13-20 This passage focuses on the reliability of God’s faithfulness to his promises. The theme of God’s oath is developed with an illustration (6:13-15), followed by a general principle (6:16), followed by the main point: God has sworn a significant oath (6:17-18), which gives us hope because it shows that Jesus is our permanent High Priest (6:19-20).
