Shem as the Priest/King of Salem – Nov 13, 2025

As I said Sunday I do hold to the literal meaning of Hebrews 7:3, that Melchizedek literally had no family.  However, I am open to the interpretation that Hebrews is just referring to the lack of family mentioned in Genesis 14, and I think it’s cool to suggest the “King of Righteousness” could have been Noah’s son, Shem.

After church I was asked how that was even possible; take a look at this chart on a wide computer monitor, if possible.

Pretty cool, huh?
