Mathews  aU.S.A  bEisenbrauns  c2013  a178tr.  bHardcover, Illustration  c24 cm  aBulletin for Biblical Research Supplements  aGen 14:18–20 is a brief episode depicting the encounter between Abram and Melchizedek. Taking this episode and its context in the Pentateuch as the starting point, Mathews sets out to analyze the text as it has been composed, in order to understand the biblical and theological significance of this priest-king Melchizedek. The thesis proposed and investigated is that Melchizedek’s royal priestly portrayal in Genesis initiates a priesthood that is intentionally presented as an alternative to Aaron and his priesthood. The claim is that this distinct priestly order is evident in the biblical text as we have it, and it may be discerned by reading the text carefully, on its own terms, with close attention to its compositional features.  aBible -- Criticism, interpretation, etc.  aPriesthood  aGenesis (Book of the Bible)4 uhttps://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15698/11.jpgyCover Image  aHuỳnh Thị Ngọc Bích  aTVCD 2024  c15549d15549  00104070aTVCDbTVCDd2026-01-20g0.00l0pTVCD-15549v0.00yBK
