Download or read book Melchizedek King of Sodom written by Robert R. Cargill and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2019-08 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The biblical figure Melchizedek appears just twice in the Hebrew Bible, and once more in the Christian New Testament. Cited as both the king of Shalem-understood by most scholars to be Jerusalem-and as an eternal priest without ancestry, Melchizedek's appearances become textual justification for tithing to the Levitical priests in Jerusalem and for the priesthood of Jesus Christ himself. But what if the text was manipulated? Robert R. Cargill explores the Hebrew and Greek texts concerning Melchizedek's encounter with Abraham in Genesis as a basis to unravel the biblical mystery of this character's origins. The textual evidence that Cargill presents shows that Melchizedek was originally known as the king of Sodom and that the later traditions about Sodom forced biblical scribes to invent a new location, Shalem, for Melchizedek's priesthood and reign. Cargill also identifies minor, strategic changes to the Hebrew Bible and the Samaritan Pentateuch that demonstrate an evolving, polemical, sectarian discourse between Jews and Samaritans competing for the superiority of their respective temples and holy mountains. The resulting literary evidence was used as the ideological motivation for identifying Shalem with Jerusalem in the Second Temple Jewish tradition. A brief study with far-reaching implications, Melchizedek, King of Sodom reopens discussion of not only this unusual character, but also the origins of both the priesthood of Christ and the role of early Israelite priest-kings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mystery of Melchizedek Who was this strange Priest/King that received tithes from Abraham? (…and administered bread and wine to him?)How is Melchizedek relevant to the Messiah of Israel?Did Melchizedek have a temple that predated Solomon’s?Is the Jewish Kingdom as portrayed in the Old Testament simply an intermediate parenthesis within a larger expanse?Why are the distinctives so divergent from the enforced separation of the kingship and priesthood under David?Were the bread and wine served by Melchizedek eschatological? Did they embrace the Cross? (They, too, echo across the pages of the OT)Was the Lord’s Communion anticipated in Gen. 14? Deriving from some very recent discoveries in Jerusalem (although some are yet to be confirmed) these studies may challenge many of the comfortable traditions that have shaped our classic Biblical perspectives. Join us as we explore some fascinating challenges to our previous understandings of things that shape our ultimate destiny…

This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (The latest in the PROPHETS, PRIESTS AND KINGS SERIES is here for serious Bible students. Misunderstandings and misinformation on the true priesthood of Christ are addressed by several hundred relevant Scripture passages. With God’s Word as the authority, the role of priests is defined before the search for the mysterious Christ-like figure, Melchizedek, can begin. The entire Bible is examined for clues to the man that Genesis 14:18 calls ‘Priest of God Most High.’ Following each lead, Scripture takes the investigation in a unique direction. Concluding Melchizedek had flesh-and-blood pays dividends when the pursuit leads to a “person-of-interest.” From there, a case is solidly built for one of the most dramatic Bible discoveries of any era. Until now, God has cloaked Melchizedek in mystery. Solving this mystery is the Lord’s gift to his last day’s saints, The Priests of God. Knowing who was hidden behind the veil will have tremendous implications for the priestly order of Melchizedek. Get ready to be challenged. Get set to objectively re-think and re-examine all you have learned about prophecy. Be prepared for a life-changing and mind-blowing experience. You must be open to the Spirit. Your destiny as God’s servant awaits.)

Download or read book The Order of Melchizedek written by Rev. Daniel Chesbro and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The teachings of Melchizedek--a totally balanced, authoritative incarnation of Christ--on topics such as reincarnation, spiritual development, and free will, are presented in this manual that relates a positive approach to the current transitional stage of spiritual evolution. Contending that the unconditional love of God is bombarding the earth in an influx of neutrinos, this account provides a history of Melchizedek, who is a major influence in both the New and Old Testaments but is vastly understudied in most churches. Promoting a harmonious view of religion--where there is one God, understood and worshiped in a variety of different ways, each serving a purpose to those worshipping and to the overall understanding of spirituality--this testament to the Order is both down-to-earth and profound.
Download or read book Apocalypse and Armageddon The Secret Origins of Christianity The First Shall be Last and the Last Shall be First written by Hekataios Amerikos and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years several books about the beginnings of Christianity and/or of Jesus and the disciples have been written. They range from books based mainly upon faith and the gospels to the outlandishly sensational, which barely even suggest that they are based upon actual, documented history. Yet, in one way or another, they all purport to provide the reader with the historical truth. Still, when reading these other works, one finds that they are at best only loosely based upon real history of the time period and they provide little in the way of historical documentation, let alone critical analysis. This book is an exception because it sticks to the cold, hard historical evidence and proceeds where that evidence leads. This important work of historical non-fiction will serve to enhance public understanding of the true origins of Christianity. This book is designed to serve that purpose. It is not meant to offend, but is meant to provoke critical thought and debate.
Download or read book Melchizedek written by Baal Kadmon and published by . This book was released on 2018-12-22 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many mysterious characters in the Bible. Even those we know much about are still a mystery. In my estimation, the most mysterious and most misunderstood is Melchizedek. Only one other person comes to my mind that is a close second in his enigmatic nature, and that Is Enoch. We know more about Enoch than we do about Melchizedek.If you look up Melchizedek, you will find many people claiming to be of the Melchizedek order. You will also find reference to Melchizedek as an "Ascended Master." This is a newer development and I would say a tad New Age, with basis only in Channeled wisdom. Since that evidence relies on channeled material, I will not include it in this book since there is no way for me to confirm the veracity of the claims. The ancient texts are more concrete about who Melchizedek is. Despite the texts being more definitive, he is still enigmatic and his nature changes over time. In this book, I will examine Melchizedek throughout the various traditions he is found in. I will attempt to use the language of the source material I used to add clarity. Here is what I will cover in this book: I will shed light on the meaning and origin of the "name" Melchizedek. I will examine Melchizedek In the Old Testament. It is here where he first appears. I will examine his role in the New Testament and how various Christian denominations understood Melchizedek. We will take a brief tour through the Dead Sea Scrolls to see how he is portrayed. In this text he is an enemy of Belial. Melchizedek is found in early Rabbinic texts. It is in these documents that his identity changes. There are a few references to Melchizedek in the Gnostic Gospels and the Apocrypha. I will examine these sources further. I will examine the writings of the historians Josephus and Philo and how they understood Melchizedek. Finally, I will present two short, but POWERFUL Kabbalistic meditations you can do to tap into his energy. You will NOT want to miss that. Let us begin.

Other scholars and bloggers started exploring the history and meanings of the symbol, which was later added to the Salt Lake City Temple. For the first time in one book, the modern story is uncovered. Learn why the Seal of Melchizedek is finding its way back into contemporary Christian culture, and why Latter-day Saints in particular find it so interesting.
