Emadi","A scholarly theological study of the royal priesthood theme centered on Psalm 110 across biblical and intertestamental texts, then traced into the Gospels and Hebrews. The work examines priesthood in crisis, surveys interpretive approaches, and presents structured exegesis of Psalm 110. It develops how Genesis figures, Israel’s Aaronic system, and the Davidic king converge into a priest-king messianic portrait, culminating in Jesus as high priest. The book concludes with theological implications for Christology and the Church.","APOLLOS (an imprint of Inter-Varsity Press)  \n36 Causton Street  \nLondon SW1P 4ST, England  \n[ivpbooks.com](ivpbooks.com)  \n[ivp@ivpbooks.com](ivp@ivpbooks.com)  \nInterVarsity Press, USA  \nP.O.
