Here you will find some interesting information you can find about this mysterious Biblical character.
Some people say that Melchizedek was Shem, the son of Noah. This does not apply because Shem line has known.
Some people say that Melchizedek was a secret visit to the Lord. This view has little reason or merit.
Some people believe Melchizedek was just a pagan priest and king of a pagan city named Salem. He had lain in some form of alliance with the King of Sodom and Gomorrahin the vicinity. This view is an interesting aspect. We must keep in mind is not pagan, that they were atheists who do not believe in God. Pagans generally believed in many gods.
When Melchizedek said: "God the highest," he used the words "El Elyon". (Genesis 14:20) This term has been a common view of the time for Baal, and not (in record time) for God, used before or after that until about 1000 years. later. Said Two verses later, when Abraham, he promised: "God the highest," he would not be one of the spoils, heuses the name "Yahweh". (Genesis 14:22)
Melchizedek was lending to the Baal Abram for success in the battle?
El Elyon is a generic name for Baal, and / or his father. Baal, in place of pagan worship, was also the creator of heaven and earth. Half of the name of Melchizedek, Zedek was a common pagan Assyrian / Phoenician god and culture Salem (Shalim) was the goddess of the dawn.
When Abram was the first Hebrew, then every other way is from a non-Jew, is not it? Unless they werebelieve in the God of Adam and Noah. Salem was a pagan city under pagan influence and domination until they later Jerusalem.
Abram gave Melchizedek a tenth of the spoils of war, but it was not out of the country than by the law 600 years later to produce. If you want to use the Torah as a standard, the law dictates 1/1000th was the call of booty, and not once a week. (Numbers 31:25-30)
Actually, tithing, when you add the food, by the law dictates think it has toabout 23% and 10%. Immediately after Abram gave Melchizedek tenth, he has to offer a sacrifice to the Lord. If the tenth of the spoils of war for the Lord before?
So, what about Hebrews Chapter Seven? First, we want to recognize that it is not a verse, or has even indicated that if someone in Hebrews chapter seven tithes.
The word in ten (or in some Bibles, tithe) was from the same Greek word translated. Verse 5 is a bit different than the others in terms of priests, the LevitesFood collected tithes from the people, but this is not the center of the context.
The writer to the Hebrews used to show their respect for Abraham, as was the priesthood of Yeshua to be similar, but larger than the priesthood of Melchizedek. If the priest Melchizedek was greater than Abraham tested (with the line of the Levitical priesthood in his loins), then Yeshua is greater than everything.
The author of the letter is the mystique of being Melchizedek in the definition andprove Yeshua's priesthood was similar to that of Melchizedek, and greater than the Levites, even if not by blood but by appointment, with no beginning or end of record.
Side Note: As Methuselah lives the life of Adam a few hundred years overlapped, and he was, until the tide of life he had had contact with his grandson Noah and his sons also. It is Abraham could have received oral narratives of Adam by law, only one or two ear-witnesses.It could very well be the same for Melchizedek.
Taking into account that I'm more comfortable with the idea Melchizedek feeling was perhaps one of the oldest living believers from the Noah-era, the end, a king of a pagan city. He still believed in the true God of Adam and Noah, while in a pagan environment. But you would think he had to put up with a certain degree of pollution of the pagan worship of the city or culture, or the surrounding pagan cities like Sodom and Gomorrah, huh? Thisbefore Abraham was the father of the Jews, he was a kind of non-Jews, is not it?
What happens if Melchizedek was "in homage to Baal (Gen. 14:20)? And the tenth was the custom of the region, the reigning king? With this background, it does not seem to affect what in 14 gene. or the comparison to his ordination in Hebrews Chapter Seven made.
It makes no difference whether Melchizedek was mistakenly believed in Baal and honored over time, believed in Baal, but recognized thePower of the God of Abraham, or believed in God, but a different name for him. The point that seems to the Hebrews does not depend on any of these factors. The focus is the priesthood of the Messiah, surpasses all.
