11.3: "Who is Melkizedek? (Order, etc.)" cont
Say, does this order have anything to do with an odd little book called
"Melchizedek_Truth_Principles" written by one Frater Achad?. I don't know
anything about this book, except that it came to me as part of the
collection of a Magus who's celebrated his Greater Feast. It's full
title is Melchizedek Truth Principles From the Ancient Mystical White
Brotherhood (Subtitled "Fourth Dimensional Teachings Through Frater
Achad.") My copy is from 1963 e.v., by DeVorss & Co. Publishers, Santa
Monica. I've never seen it anywhere else. It reads like a cross between
a Rosicrucian or Golden Dawn monograph and Madam Blavatsky, with "My
Daily Bible Lesson" thrown in on the side. Veryhite, Very
Christian...reminded me of Waite's "Hidden_Church_of_the_Holy_Grail".
Any connection? Anyone know anything about this bookIs this Crowley's
Magickal Child, Charles Stan I don't know of any other Frater Achar
Achad's, but I've never seen this book mentioned in connection with
Jones...Help! I'm SO CONFUSED!

For those interested in/feeling an affinity with Melchizedek,
you might wish to check out the following book:
"Experience of the Inner Worlds" by Gareth Knight, published
bySamuel Weiser, Inc., ISBN 0-87728-787-2
It looks to me like Weiser re-published this book in 1993,
the original copyright being in 1975.
There is an entire chapter on THE HOLY GRAIL on p. 73 of
this book, wherein Melchizedek is mentioned, and a visualization
using the Chalic to align with the Melchizedek energy of
consecration to destiny and becoming aware of the Will of God
in one's own life and destiny (as Knight puts it).

[DISC: Interpretations of REF-TEXT]
I've read one of Knight's other books and found him to be completely
wrong about almost everything he addresses.
As I've posted before, the order of Malkitzedek (which in Hebrew means
"my King is justice") started with Adam and was passed down to
Malkitzedek (who was one of Noah's sons) and thence to Abraham. From
there it passed successively to Abraham's son Isaac, to his son Jacob,
and thence to the tribe of Levi. Later it was passed to the Levitical
priests, whose male-line descendants still remain priests in today's
observant Jewish communities. We have roughly a dozen in our
congregation.
The source in Beraishit (Genesis) is 14:18. In Jewish tradition (B.
Talmud:Nedarim 32B, Rashi, Targum Yonatan) Malki-tzedek is Shem, Noah's
son. The lineage of a special relationship with God started with Adam
and worked its way down the ten generations to Noah and then to his son
Shem. Shem passed it on to Abraham, who came to the realization of God
on his own.
Another mention is in Tehillim (Psalms) 110:4. There it refers to
Abraham, or perhaps David, as bearers of an everlasting office.
