Yup that is what I'm saying. Priests are a phenomenon of organised societies. Even the king didn't have enough time to pray and so appointed some priests to do it for him. If you look at the Book of Psalms for example, much of it can be seen as prayers that the king would say before going into battle. Yeshua' = salvation seems to me clearly to mean coming out of a battle alive. Now people put all kinds of other interpretations on it.

"Migdal yeshuot malko, ve-'oseh hesed limshiho, leDavid ulezar'o 'ad 'olam"

"A tower of salvations to his king, and doer of kindness to his annointed one, to David and his seed, until eternity".....

There was no salvation in sense of something happening after death because they didn't really believe in life after death.

Anyway I think I am beginning to ramble...
