comment When did Christianity originate?
Two kinds of people could ask this question, requiring two different kinds of answers. One is the person who knows nothing about Christian history, and needs to be told that it was a Jewish offshoot and is centred round Jesus, and began in around 33AD. The second is the kind of theological stuff given in the answers so far - with foreshadowing and messianic prophecies. Those answers will be very confusing to the first kind of person. I know from your other questions that you are not the first kind of person, but if you added detail you would avoid confusing later first-kind visitors.

comment What did Paul mean by “women must be silent in church”?
I cannot resist again pointing out the number of Christians who 'contextualize' this scripture and view it as a command for the time, based on the poor education and circumstances of women, but claim that the command in the same sentence that women should not have authority is binding for all time. Sorry. Rant over.

Could you give a little more details on what you are asking? Some of the answers are very theological, rather than historical. Did you mean historically or theologically?

I don't think this is a helpful answer. The questioner is probably asking from a perspective outside Christianity, and Melchisedek is going to confuse him.

At preschool age they are closer to being synonyms :-)

"Honour" is not the same thing as "obey".

@Jenny Any reason to think the people doing this were using the Bible as justification?

"I saw a witch a while back being mistreated". Could you be a little more specific?
