“Paul develops eschatologically the creation of man in God’s image in 1 Cor 15:45.4” (Page 392)
“The conclusion is therefore inevitable: Psalm 110 speaks about a person who is king and priest. But in the history of Israel there never was such a king. The only probable solution is that the psalm speaks about a future king-priest. It deals not with a historical king, but with the Messiah. The unchallenged authority of the king whose rule will be universal and eternal points in the same direction.” (Page 202)
“Obviously, Melchizedek did have parents. But he did not have the right of kingship or priesthood on account of his descent. If this is right, there must have been two possibilities: one could become priest or king either because of hereditary rights or in another way.” (Page 207)
“Clearly there are two ways to obtain the priestly dignity: by oath and by descent.” (Page 208)
“Those who ‘give’ and ‘cast’ can expect retaliation. Not rejection but revenge is the proverb’s threat” (Page 382)
