And beyond all contradiction, the lesser is blessed by the greater.
But without any dispute the less is blessed of the better.
Yet it is beyond all dispute that the lesser person is always blessed by the greater one.
Yet it is beyond all contradiction that it is the lesser person who is blessed by the greater one.
And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
Without a doubt, the inferior is blessed by the superior.
Without a doubt, the inferior is blessed by the superior.
Without question, the less important person is blessed by the more important person.
and it is beyond all dispute that the one who blesses has higher status than the one who receives the blessing.
Everyone agrees a person who gives a blessing is greater than the one who receives the blessing.
But beyond all gainsaying, the inferior is blessed by the better.
And apart from all dispute, the lesser one is blessed by the better one.
And without all contradiction, that which is less, is blessed by the better.
And everyone knows that the more important person always blesses the less important person.
It is always the more important person who asks God to bless a less important person. We certainly know that!
And without any question, it is the lesser who is blessed by the greater.
It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.
It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.
Now ·everyone knows [it is indisputable] that the ·more important person blesses the less important person [L lesser/inferior is blessed by the greater/superior].
And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the greater.
No one can deny that the more important person blesses the less important person.
There is no doubt that the one who blesses is greater than the one who is blessed.
Without a doubt, the inferior is blessed by the superior.
And everyone knows that the more important person blesses the less important person.
It is beyond dispute that the less important person is blessed by the more important person.
Now notice the greatness of this man. Even Abraham the patriarch pays him a tribute of a tenth part of the spoils. Further, we know that, according to the Law, the descendants of Levi who accept the office of priest have the right to demand a “tenth” from the people, that is from their brothers, despite the fact that the latter are descendants of Abraham. But here we have one who is quite independent of Levitic ancestry taking a “tenth” from Abraham, and giving a blessing to Abraham, the holder of God’s promises! And no one can deny that the receiver of a blessing is inferior to the one who gives it. Again, in the one case it is mortal men who receive the “tenths”, and in the other is one who, we are assured, is alive. One might say that even Levi, the proper receiver of “tenths”, has paid his tenth to this man, for in a sense he already existed in the body of his father Abraham when Melchizedek met him.
And without any contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
But without any dispute the lesser is blessed by the greater.
Now without any dispute the inferior is blessed by the more prominent.
and as everyone knows, a person who has the power to bless is always greater than the person he blesses.
You realize just how great Melchizedek is when you see that Father Abraham gave him a tenth of the captured treasure. Priests descended from Levi are commanded by law to collect tithes from the people, even though they are all more or less equals, priests and people, having a common father in Abraham. But this man, a complete outsider, collected tithes from Abraham and blessed him, the one to whom the promises had been given. In acts of blessing, the lesser is blessed by the greater.
Without question, the inferior is blessed by the superior.
It is without · any dispute that the person of lesser status is blessed by the one of greater status.
No one can deny that the more important person blesses the less important person.
Unquestionably, a lesser person is blessed by a greater.
But without any dispute the lesser person is blessed by the greater.
But without any dispute the lesser is blessed by the greater.
It is indisputable that a lesser person is blessed by one who is greater.
Now everyone knows that the more important person blesses the less important person.
Now without dispute the inferior is blessed by the superior,
Without a doubt, the more important person blesses the less important one.
And without doubt the lesser is blessed by the greater.
And without doubt the lesser is blessed by the greater.
Now beyond all contradiction the lesser is blessed by the better.
The one who shows respect is always greater than the one who receives it.
And without question, the person who has the power to give a blessing is greater than the one who is blessed.
And without argument, he who is less receives blessing from him who is greater.
It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.
It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.
It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.
It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.
It is beyond all question that the lesser is blessed by the greater.
Now it is beyond all argument that the greater gives a bracha to the lesser.
And without any dispute, the less is blessed by the greater.
It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.
It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.
Now it is beyond dispute that the lesser is blessed by the greater.
Now I don’t have to tell you that it is the lesser one who receives a blessing from the greater.
But without any dispute the lesser is blessed by the greater.
Everyone knows this is true. The person who is blessed is not so great as the person who blesses him.
Without any gainsaying [Forsooth without any against-saying], that that is less, is blessed of the better.
and apart from all controversy, the less by the better is blessed --
