Hebrews 7:1-3

Lesson 7/Day 4 - When you hear a message from God’s word by your pastor he or she is hopefully bringing background, clarity, and understanding to that passage. This is part of “rightly diving the Word of Truth” and is called ‘expository’ teaching – teaching that exposes the verses. Based on their good exposition, we can take and apply God’s word more effectively to our life. The author of Hebrews is doing that in this chapter. He’s going back to the subject of Melchizedek from which he had to pause for some exhortation, and explaining the account of Melchizedek from Genesis. He is opening it up to give his audience back then and us today more understanding of this mysterious priest/king Melchizedek who appears in only two places in the entire Tanakh.
