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…

Ratings and reviews

It's not a mystery if you take the words back to it's original meanings. This is why every Christian who studies God's Word as they should, needs a Strong's Concordance as it traces words back to it's original Hebrew,Chaldean, and Greek. It's not a mystery, nothing is a mystery in His Word. Melchi means the King of, The King, Zedek means the Righteousness or the just. Zedek/Zadock are God's elect. So it could also be translated God of the Zadock/Elect. It's not mystery. And also, alot of people say that Revelations is a mystery and all that but that's not true either. Revelation means literally "to make known "or" to be revealed". Study to show they self approved. It's important. מַלְכִּיצֶֿ֫דֶק proper name, masculine king of שָׁלֵם (

Excellent...Chuck's insight via the Holy Spirit to the word of God is amazing praise God

very interesting
