The Holy Spirit reserved the first use of the word "priest" to describe the king of Salem, Melchizedek. In three verses, he exemplified the primary functions of a priest of blessing declaring salvation. In this episode, we see how Aaron's priesthood spoke of Jesus' work on earth and the ways Melchizedek foreshadowed Christ's work as High Priest in heaven.

In this lively episode, we take a peek ahead at faith's sojourn (did you know that Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob camped together?), have a Bible treasure hunt to determine the ages of the patriarchs (did you know Jacob was 91 when Joseph was born?), and discover what it means for Levi to be "in Abraham."

Did you know that Israel was to use their tithe to feast with God and each other? Two thirds of all New Testament uses of the word "tithe" occur in Hebrews 7.

If you have struggled with being free in your giving or been bound under the law of the tithe, this message is for you!
