Mataeis Posted May 23, 2012 Report Posted May 23, 2012 (edited) maybe I just missunderstood. So then, to get this straight, Lord knows I done want to make this mistake again, the root word would be Melechi -Tsedek? So my spelling of it in the form of Malachi is what would be wrong? And yes, you would be appalled by some of the professors here in utah valley. Thanks man Edited May 23, 2012 by Mataeis Quote

Pronounciation can vary. Spelling it as Malachi would relate it to the word mal'ach, which root is mem-lamed-alef-chaf. Two very different words. Quote

So then, Melechi is not the same as Malachi? Would Melech or Melechi be how one would pronounce mem-lamed-chaf as a singular word on its own?Im thinking that I maybe just copied what I heard down wrong, but I do remember it distinctly as Malachi= but that may simply have been a pronunciation error/ thus I wrote it down incorrectly (as you can see in my earlier posts, I can hardly spell english, let alone hebrew)Dude, I totally need your email, your schooling my professor and you dont even know it.

mtman318 Posted July 10, 2012 Report Posted July 10, 2012 Personally, I'm convinced that Shem and Melchizedek are one and the same. And I agree with the following Ensign explanation of D&C 84 posted earlier, especially if the verse in question is read with the two following it: "On the other hand, there is a case for their being two distinct personalities. Many persons believe D&C 84:14 is proof that there are perhaps several generations between Melchizedek and Noah. The scripture says, 'Which Abraham received the priesthood from Melchizedek, who received it through the lineage of his fathers, even till Noah.' "If it does turn out that Shem and Melchizedek are the same person, this scripture should prove no stumbling block, because it could be interpreted to mean that priesthood authority commenced with Adam and came through the fathers, even till Noah, and then to Shem." Also, one of the more obscure definitions of "even" is "or more exactly" (taken from the Encarta Dictionary via Microsoft Word). Hence, the passages could possibly be reworded as "Melchizedek received it through the lineage of his fathers, or more exactly, from Noah to his fathers, including Enoch, Abel, etc," or maybe, "through the lineage of his fathers, starting at Noah..." These interpretations seem more plausible also when you compare verses 14-16 with the more precisely worded verses 6-12. Ouch 1 Quote
