And, without any contradiction, the less is blessed by the better. And in the one instance, men that die receive tithes; but in the other, he receives them who has the testimony that he lives. And so to speak, even Levi, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham; for he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.

and that he may send Jesus Christ, who was destined for you; whom heaven must retain, till the time for restoring all things that God has spoken by the mouth of his holy prophets of ancient times.
