Meet Shem

Shem was one of Noah’s sons. Many people believe that Shem is also the great king Melchizedek. You say his name like this: MEL – KEYS – A – DECK. Melchizedek was a priest and king in the Old Testament. Most priests in the Old Testament would offer God sacrifices of animals. Instead, Melchizedek offered God a sacrifice of bread and wine. When Jesus came, people said that He was a priest like Melchizedek. At the last supper, Jesus gave us His Body and Blood under the appearance of bread and wine.
