MELCHIZEDEK 2

Melchizedek ; whose name means "king of righteousness", was king in Salem (Jerusalem) and priest of the Most High God. The appearance of Melchizedek and his sudden disappearance in Genesis are somewhat mysterious. Melchizedek gave Abraham and his exhausted men bread and wine to express his friendship. And Abraham blessed the name of the Most High God and praised God because he gave Abraham victory in battle (Genesis 14: 18-20).Abraham gave Melki Sadik The ten booty he collected. In this way, Abraham announced that he realized that Melchizedek worshipped the same true God that he worshipped and that he was a priest to the Most High God and thus the spiritual status of Melchizedek was higher than him. The presence of Melchizedek shows that there were others other than Abraham and his family who worshiped the one True God. Psalm 110, a prophetic psalm by David (Matthew 22:42), refers to Melchizedek as a picture of Christ.
