To: Beloved Levinite; null and void

Hebrews 7:3 is about Jesus..

Hbr 7:1 For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;

Hbr 7:2 To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;

Hbr 7:3 Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.

Hbr 7:4 Now consider how great this man [was], unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils. Hebrews 7:1-4

OK, I did not see the context. But, sorry, but this does not make sense to me. Certainly Jesus had a father (ahem...Father God, and at the least earthly father Joseph, who had to raise Him.)And Jesus had no mother? Who was Mary, if she was not the “mother” Jesus? Could He have survived to adulthood on His own? I’m sorry, but this verse is not easily reconciled.
