But the reader understands that even though that is what the author of Hebrews said about Melchizedek, his point is entirely rhetorical. Of course we know Mel is not an eternal being, which is why the author compared Mel to Jesus, because Jesus is also not eternal. Are you saying the divinely inspired author of Hebrews is wrong because he contradicts trintiarianism repeatedly throughout the book?you do not pay sufficient attention. Melchizedek basically remains undefined, unexplained and without apparent beginning or end. I can see how that idea does not register in a unitarian's mind, but for other people this is suggestive of a divine existence or of a type of Christ who has divine existence before creation and forever more.
