Title: Teal brigade heroes are all of them temple priests??
Post by: redemption collector 777 on July 16, 2015, 12:27:13 PM

 1. Are all teal brigade heroes considered "Temple priests"? or only ones that specifically says "temple priest" on the identifiers?

 Just wondering for the enhancement called His name is John enhancement working on certain priests SA : Select a temple priest hero ability and enhancements are CBN this turn.

  Examples like
 
   Melchizedek

   Faithful priest. (early church)

  Priests of Christ 

 any priest from the House of Eleazar or Ithamar

I believe "temple priests" is a general term for any priest that belongs to one of the O.T. temples, i.e. Solomon's Temple and Zerubbabel's Temple (possibly Herod's Temple, too?). I don't know offhand if Tabernacle Priests are considered "temple priests".

Melchizedek didn't belong to any of the temples, nor the Tabernacle, so I don't think he is considered a temple priest. Faithful Priest and Priests of Christ are both N.T. and I don't think any N.T. characters belonged to the temples so I would assume they aren't either.

There is not currently a definition for temple priests in the REG so I'm not 100% on this.

Ezekiel would also not be a temple priest I believe.

There are currently entries on the REG for Solomon's Temple Priests and Zerubbabel's Temple Priests. All of those Heroes, in addition to Zecharias, Father of John (Herod's Temple Priest) are Temple Priests.

Thanks for catching this oversight. We did not have an entry created in the current (or forthcoming) version of the REG for Temple Priests. Thanks to you it's been updated to the coming update! :)
