Iron and Myth 48: Melchizedek

One of the most mysterious and consequential figures in the Bible is only mentioned in three short passages of scripture. To discuss him, we assemble our regular Iron and Myth panel: Doug Van Dorn (DouglasVanDorn.com), author of Battle for the Bible’s Truth: Genesis, Jesus, and the Second Century Plot to Deny the Messiah; Brian Godawa (Godawa.com), best-selling author of the theological thriller Cruel Logic and two new novels based on the period of the Maccabees in Judea; and Dr. Judd Burton (BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant. We explore the mysterious figure of Melchizedek, his biblical significance, and connections to messianic prophecy, ancient cultures, and spiritual realms. Was he more than human? If so, who in the supernatural realm was he?
