The King-Priest in Samuel

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Nicholas Majors has produced a significant study building the case that Saul, David, and David’s royal descendants functioned as divinely authorized king-priests in ancient Israel—a role that was fully realized in the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. To build his argument, Majors marshals an impressive array of evidence from Scripture and contemporary scholarship, and in the process, succeeds in creating a comprehensive treatment of a topic that has implications for both Old and New Testament studies.”
