1 | Who in the bible never died? | Genesis | tommy_1957 | 171428 | ||
If you look in Genesis at the life of Abram/Abraham, he offered a tenth of all his posessions to a priest called Melchizedek who had no parents and no lineage and never died. He was "taken up to be with God." Another person was Enoch in the days of Noah. Enoch also was carried up to God without having to die. | ||||||
2 | Who in the bible never died? | Genesis | BradK | 171434 | ||
Hi Tommy, Are you referring to Genesis 25:8 when you say that "He was "taken up to be with God." ? The NKJV reads "Then Abraham breathed his last and died in a good old age, an old man and full of years and was gathered to his people." The NASB reads: "Abraham breathed his last and died in a ripe old age, an old man and satisfied with life; and he was gathered to his people." Possibly you're confusing Abraham with Enoch (and Elijah)? Abraham died, wereas only Enoch and Elijah were "translated"- taken up to heaven- so as not to see death! (Gen. 5:24, 2 Kings 2:11) I just wanted to be sure I was reading you correctly and following your thoughts. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

Mr. Brad, Thanks so much for the correction. I meant Enoch and Melchizedek. Both of these were taken up to Heaven and did not die. Thanks for catching that for me. In Christ, Tommy |

"Without [record of] father or mother" Without [record of] father or mother or ancestral line, neither with beginning of days nor ending of life, but, resembling the Son of God, he continues to be a priest without interruption and without successor. Hebrews 7:3 AMPLIFIED NASB Hebrews 7:3 Without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, he remains a priest perpetually. '7:3 "Without father..." This does not mean that Melchizedek had no parents or that he was not born or did not die, but only that the Scriptures contain no record of these events so that he might be more perfectly likened to Christ.' (The Ryrie Study Bible, Charles Caldwell Ryrie, Moody Press, Chicago, 1978) Tommy: You're welcome. I know the Forum also keeps me looking and digging -- searching the scriptures daily, whether those things are so. Grace to you, Kalos |
