1 | order of Malchezedek | Gen 14:18 | butch b | 177752 | ||
In the book of Hebrews the phrase is used "a priest of the order of Malchezedek". What do they mean by "the order of Malchezedek"? | ||||||
2 | order of Malchezedek | Gen 14:18 | BradK | 177753 | ||
Hi butch, In general, the phrase is used referring back to the introduction of Melchizedek in Gen. 14:18-20. Of Heb. 7:11, Vincent says: "In Christ, as the Melchisedec-priest, the ideal of the priesthood is realised." The Bible Knowledge Commentary gives this insight: "In the simplest manner, the author argued for the imperfection of the Levitical priesthood on the basis of God’s promise (recorded in Ps. 110:4) that a new Priest would arise belonging to an order other than Aaron’s. Since there was a change of the priesthood, it follows that the whole legal system on which the Levitical institutions were predicated also had to be changed. Here the writer virtually affirmed the Pauline truth that “you are not under Law” (Rom. 6:14), though he approached it from a different angle." I hope this helps, BradK |
