Melchisedec and the Trininty

<< < (2/2)

David:
I don't see how it can be, otherwise the next part would have to apply "nor end of life". Christ did have an end to His life, briefly. He was then resurrected and given imortality.

Beloved:
This is a double entendres

Jesus did have an literal 'end of life' when he died physically.

But it was He after his own resurrection who declared:

(Rev 1:18)  "I am he that liveth, and was dead."

but Christ is now alive

(Acts 13:29) "for evermore" since his Father raised him from the dead.

Melkisedek is never mentioned again, there is no mention of his death

Now the phrase " Remains a priest continually" on the other hand poses another question

: Either this refers to the re- continuation of the priesthood of Melchizedek, or it is evidence that Melchizedek was actually Jesus appearing in the Old Testament. 

Neverthe less Jesus’ priesthood does remain to this day, and into eternity

Paul uses this story from the Torah to show contrast and fulfillment,
