Today’s date is Oct.15, 2022
October -- the eighth month – now the 10th month
Middle
English octobre

Latin octo "eight" + -ber (adj.
suffix)

Today’s Topic:
Let’s talk a litter about:
Melchizedek - Melchisedec
מַלְכִּי-צֶדֶק
Melchizedek - Melchisedec was
a priest,
My king is righteous
מַלְכִּי־צֶדֶק Malkiy-Tsedeq {mal-kee-tseh'-dek}
Meaning: Melchizedek = "my king is Sedek,
righteous " 1) king of Salem and
priest of the Most High God to whom Abram paid tithe after the battle he fought
to free Lot;
'the order of Melchizedek' the order of the
priesthood to which Messiah belongs
Shadow
of Messiah's offices
as Son,
the Word
a King
a Priest
Just a
few verses:
The "priestly" line
of succession in Israel, according to God's Torah, was different from the "kingly" line.
The
kings were to descend from the tribe of Judah, whereas the priests
were to be of the tribe of Levi.
The High Priest was selected from the household of Aaron.
Messiah
was to be both a King and a High Priest.
It would appear impossible for the Messiah to lay claim to both offices, since He would have to be from both the tribes of Judah and Levi.
However that obstacle is overcome because Messiah's
priesthood is not of the worldly order, the Levitical priesthood, but of the order of the spiritual
order, Melchizedek’s priesthood.
Let’s
consider:
Bread and wine: symbolic of the body and blood of Messiah - spiritual
Gen.14:
[18] And Melchizedek
king of Salem, brought
forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.
[19] And he blessed him, and
said, Blessed be Abram of the most
high God, possessor of heaven and earth:
[20] And blessed be the most high God, which had
delivered your enemies into your hand. And he gave him tithes,
(10th) of all.
English
spellings in scripture:
Melchizedek
- Melchisedec
My King
is Righteous מַלְכִּי-צֶדֶק
Examples of my king:
[6] Yet have I set my king
upon my holy hill of Zion.
[7] I will declare the decree: Yehovah hath said unto me (Messiah), You are my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
Pss.5
[2] Hearken unto the voice of
my cry, my King, and my God: unto thee will I pray.
Pss.44
[4]
You are my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.
Pss.68
[24]
They have seen your goings, O God; even the goings of my God, my King,
in the sanctuary.
Pss.74
[12]
For God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of
the earth.
Pss.84
[3]
Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where
she may lay her young, even your altars,
O Yehovah
of hosts, my King, and my God.
Psalm
110: God the Father’s oath
[1] Yehovah said unto my Lord, (Messiah) Sit you at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool.
[2] Yehovah shall send the rod of your strength out of Zion: rule you in the midst of your enemies.
[3] Thy people shall be willing in the day of your power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: you have the dew of your youth.
[4] Yehovah had sworn, and will not repent, You (Messiah) are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek
[5] The Lord (Messiah) at your (the Father's) right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
[6]
He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead
bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.
[7]
He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.
Pss.2
[1] Why do the
heathen rage, and the people imagine a
vain thing?
[2] The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel
together, against Yehovah, and against his anointed,
(Messiah) saying,
[3] Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
[4] He that sitteth in the heavens shall
laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
[5] Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore
displeasure.
[6] Yet have I set my
king (Messiah) upon my holy hill of Zion.
[7] I will declare the decree: Yehovah had
said unto me, (Messiah) You are
my Son; this day have I begotten You
[8] Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen
for your
inheritance, and the uttermost parts
of the earth for your possession.
[9] You shall break them with a rod of iron; you shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.
[10] Be wise now therefore, O you kings: be instructed, you judges of the earth.
[11] Serve Yehovah with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
[12] Kiss the Son, lest he (Messiah) be angry,
and you perish from the way, when his (Messiah) wrath
is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in
him. (Messiah)
Peter quotes Psalm 2
Acts.4:
[24] And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, you are God, which had made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:
[25] Who
by the mouth of your servant David Pss.2 had said, Why did the
heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?
[26]
The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against Yehovah,
and against his Messiah.
[27]
For of a truth against your holy
child Yeshua,
whom you had anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and
the people of Israel, was gathered together,[28] For to do whatsoever
your hand and your counsel determined before to be done.
A few more vesese:
Acts.13
[27] For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers,
because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read
every Sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.
[28] And though they found no cause of death in him,
yet desired they Pilate that
he should be slain.
[29] And when they had fulfilled all that was written
of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulcher.
[30] But God raised him from the dead:
[31] And he was seen many days of them which came up
with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.
[32] And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that
the promise which was made unto the fathers,
[33] God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he
hath raised up Yeshua again; as it is also
written in the second psalm above, Thou are my Son, this
day have I begotten thee. Psalm 2:7
Heb.5
[1] For every high priest taken from among men is
ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and
sacrifices for sins:
[2] Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on
them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with
infirmity.
[3] And by reason hereof he ought, as for the
people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.
[4] And no man takes this honor unto himself, but he
that is called of God, as was Aaron.
[5] So also
Messiah glorified not himself to be made an
high priest; but he that said unto him, You are my Son, today have I begotten
thee.
[6] As he said also
in another place, You
are a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
[7] Who in
the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications
with strong crying and tears unto him, the Father that was able to save him
from death, and was heard in that he feared;
[8] Though he
were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;
[9] And being
made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto
all them that obey him;
[10] Called
of God a high priest after the order of Melchisedec. Psalm
110:4
Heb.6:
[20] Whither
the forerunner is for us entered, even Yeshua, made an
high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. Psalm 110:4
Heb.7
[1] For this Melchisedec, king of Salem,
priest of the most high God,
who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings,
and blessed him;
[2] To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by
interpretation King of righteousness,
and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
[3] Without father, without mother,
without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made
like unto the Son of God; abides a
priest continually.
[4] Now consider how great this man was, unto whom
even the patriarch Abraham gave the
tenth of the spoils.
[5] And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office
of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to
the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of
Abraham:
[6] But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of
Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
[7] And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
[8] And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives.
[9] And as I may so say, Levi also, who receives tithes, pays tithes in Abraham.
[10] For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met
him.
[11] If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the
law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the
order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
[12] For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a
change also of the law.
[13] For he of whom these things are spoken pertains to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at
the altar.
[14] For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Judah; of which tribe Moses spoke nothing
concerning priesthood.
[15] And it is yet far more evident:
for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there arises another priest,
[16] Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the
power of an endless life.
[17] For he testifies, You are a priest for ever after the order
of Melchisedec. Psalm 110:4
[18] For there is verily a disannulling
of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.
[19] For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope
did; by the which we
draw nigh unto God.
[20] And inasmuch as not without
an oath he was made priest:
[21] (For
those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, Yehovah sware and will
not repent, Thou are a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:) Psalm 110:4
[22] By so much was Yeshua made a surety of a better testament.
[23] And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to
continue by reason of death:
[24] But this man, because he continues ever, hath an
unchangeable priesthood.
[25] Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that comes unto God by him, seeing he ever lives to make intercession for them.
[26] For such an high priest became (He for) us, who is holy, harmless,
undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
[27] Who needs not daily, as those high
priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the
people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.
[28] For the law makes men high priests which have infirmity; but
the word of the oath, which was since the law, makes the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.
A few mores verses:
The Word (Son, Messiah, God)
There

The
word of Yehovah came unto … saying…
John 1
[1]
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
[2] The same was in the beginning with God.
[3] All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made
that was made.
[4] In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
[5] And the light shines in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it
not.
[6]
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
[7] The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light,
that all men through him might believe.
[8] He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
[9] That was the true Light,
which lightens every man that cometh into the world.
[10]
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
[11] He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
[12] But as many as received him, to them gave he
power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
[13] Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of
the will of man, but of God.
[14] And the Word was made flesh,
and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only
begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

And I John,
saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was
called Faithful and True, and
in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
[12] His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns;
and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
[13] And he was clothed with a vesture dipped
in blood:
and his name is called The Word of God.
