[1] {Melchisedec}
» See Note "Ge 14:18"
Melchisedec was a suitable type of Christ as High
Priest, because: (1) he was a king-priest
# Ge 14:18 Zec 6:12,13
(2) his name means, "my king is righteous" (cf)
# Isa 11:5
and he was king of Salem (i.e. "peace," cf
# Isa 11:6-9
(3) he had no (recorded) "beginning of days" (cf)
# Joh 1:1
nor "end of life" (cf)
# Ro 6:9 Heb 7:23-25
nor (4) was he made a high priest by human appointment
# Ps 110:4
But the contrast between the high priesthood of Melchisedec and
Aaron is only as to person, "order" (or appointment), and duration.
In His work Christ follows the Aaronic pattern, the "shadow" of which
Christ was the substance.
# Heb 8:1-6 9:1-28
