Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble, and I'm your host for the Bible Recap.

0:12.6

Today we drop back in on the book of Hebrews and its rich descriptions of Jesus and his supremacy over all things.

0:19.3

Chapter 7 opens by continuing to compare him to the Old Testament priest Melchizedek.

0:24.0

Some scholars believe he was a Christ type, while others believe he was God the Son, making

0:28.6

a special appearance on earth before he was born as Jesus.

0:31.7

They certainly have a lot in common.

0:33.7

For instance, Melchizedek's name means righteousness, and he was the king of a place called

0:38.0

Peace, and when he showed up in Genesis 14, he brought out bread and wine, and the author

1:08.2

descended from Levi. But there's a good reason he

1:10.9

wasn't a descendant of Levi, because he lived about 500 years before Levi was born. As a non-levitical

1:16.8

priest, one not descended from Levi, Malkisadet kind of sets a precedent for Jesus as priest,

1:22.2

because Jesus was also not a descendant of Levi. But Jesus, who is from the line of Judah,

1:27.1

gets his priestly authority

1:28.4

based on the fact that he is eternal. That'll do it. If you joined us in the New Testament,

1:33.3

it's possible that some of this may be lost on you, but I hope you'll stick around and join
