A Change in the Law (Hebrews 7:12)

In Hebrews 7:12, the author announces, “For when there is a change in the priesthood, there is necessarily a change in the law as well.” Many have taken this to mean that the Levitical priesthood and the entire Law of Moses has been overturned. But is that really what the author of Hebrews is saying? Actually, there are some major problems with this interpretation.
