93:2.5 In [[personal]] [[appearance]], Melchizedek resembled the then blended [[Nodite]] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumer Sumerian] peoples, being almost six feet in height and possessing a commanding [[presence]]. He spoke [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaldea Chaldean] and a half dozen other [[languages]]. He dressed much as did the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canaan Canaanite] [[priests]] except that on his breast he wore an emblem of [[three]] [[concentric]] [[circles]], the [[Satania]] [[symbol]] of the [[Paradise Trinity]]. In the [[course]] of his [[ministry]] this insignia of three concentric circles became regarded as so [[sacred]] by his followers that they never dared to use it, and it was soon forgotten with the passing of a few [[generations]].

93:2.6 Though [[Machiventa]] lived after the [[manner]] of the men of the realm, he never [[married]], nor could he have left [[offspring]] on [[earth]]. His [[physical]] [[body]], while resembling that of the [[human]] [[male]], was in [[reality]] on the order of those especially constructed [[bodies]] used by the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_66#66:2._THE_PRINCE.27S_STAFF one hundred materialized members of Prince Caligastia' s staff] except that it did not carry the life [[plasm]] of any [[human]] race. Nor was there available on [[Urantia]] the [[tree of life]]. Had [[Machiventa]] remained for any long period on [[earth]], his [[physical]] [[mechanism]] would have gradually deteriorated; as it was, he terminated his [[bestowal]] mission in ninety-four years long before his material body had begun to disintegrate.

93:2.7 This [[incarnated]] [[Melchizedek]] received a [[Thought Adjuster]], who indwelt his [[superhuman]] [[personality]] as the monitor of [[time]] and the [[mentor]] of the [[flesh]], thus gaining that [[experience]] and practical introduction to Urantian [[problems]] and to the [[technique]] of indwelling an [[incarnated]] Son which enabled this spirit of [[the Father]] to [[function]] so valiantly in the [[human]] [[mind]] of the later Son of God, [[Michael]], when he [[appeared]] on [[earth]] in the likeness of [[mortal]] flesh. And this is the only [[Thought Adjuster]] who ever functioned in two minds on [[Urantia]], but both minds were [[divine]] as well as [[human]].

93:2.8 During the [[incarnation]] in the [[flesh]], [[Machiventa]] was in full [[contact]] with his eleven fellows of the corps of [[Melchizedek receivers|planetary custodians]], but he could not [[communicate]] with other orders of [[celestial]] [[personalities]]. Aside from the [[Melchizedek receivers]], he had no more [[contact]] with [[superhuman]] [[intelligences]] than a [[human being]].
