His encounter with Abraham is a profound example of hospitality, which carries deep theological implications and foreshadows the priesthood of Christ.<br><br><b>Biblical Account</b><br><br>The primary account of Melchizedek is found in <a href="/genesis/14-18.htm">Genesis 14:18-20</a>. After Abram (later named Abraham) rescues his nephew Lot and defeats the coalition of kings, Melchizedek, the king of Salem and a priest of God Most High, meets Abram:<br><br>"Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine—since he was priest of God Most High—and he blessed Abram and said: 'Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth, and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand.' Then Abram gave him a tenth of everything." (<a href="/genesis/14-18.htm">Genesis 14:18-20</a>)<br><br><b>Role and Significance</b><br><br>Melchizedek's hospitality is marked by the offering of bread and wine, which not only provides physical sustenance but also symbolizes spiritual nourishment and blessing. This act of hospitality is significant for several reasons:<br><br>1. <b>Priestly Role</b>: As a priest of God Most High, Melchizedek's offering is both a physical and spiritual act. His blessing of Abram signifies a divine approval and recognition of Abram's mission and God's covenant with him.<br><br>2. <b>Typology of Christ</b>: Melchizedek is often seen as a type of Christ, prefiguring the eternal priesthood of Jesus. The Epistle to the Hebrews elaborates on this typology, stating, "You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek." (<a href="/hebrews/7-17.htm">Hebrews 7:17</a>). The offering of bread and wine by Melchizedek is seen as a precursor to the Last Supper, where Jesus institutes the New Covenant.<br><br>3. <b>King of Salem</b>: The title "king of Salem" is significant, as Salem is often identified with Jerusalem. This connection further enhances the typological link to Christ, who is both King and Priest in the New Jerusalem.<br><br>4. <b>Tithing</b>: Abram's response to Melchizedek's hospitality is to give him a tenth of everything. This act of tithing acknowledges Melchizedek's authority and priestly role, setting a precedent for the practice of tithing as an act of worship and recognition of God's provision.<br><br><b>Theological Implications</b><br><br>Melchizedek's hospitality extends beyond the immediate context of <a href="/bsb/genesis/14.htm">Genesis 14</a>. It serves as a theological bridge between the Old and New Testaments, illustrating the continuity of God's plan for redemption. His dual role as king and priest foreshadows the messianic fulfillment in Jesus Christ, who embodies perfect hospitality by offering Himself as the bread of life and the mediator of a new covenant.<br><br>In summary, Melchizedek's hospitality is a profound biblical theme that underscores the importance of generosity, spiritual leadership, and the foreshadowing of Christ's eternal priesthood. His encounter with Abram is a pivotal moment that resonates throughout Scripture, highlighting the enduring significance of hospitality in the divine narrative.<a name="ttt" id="ttt"></a><div class="vheading2">Torrey's Topical Textbook</div><span class="rtext"><a href="/genesis/14-18.htm">Genesis 14:18</a></span><br>And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.<br><span class="source">Torrey's Topical Textbook</span><p><a name="lib" id="lib"></a><div class="vheading2">Library</div><p><a href="/library/drummond/introduction_to_the_new_testament/the_epistle_to_the_hebrews.htm"><span class="l">The Epistle to the Hebrews</span></a> <br><b>...</b> in hand, the writer describes the unique character of <b>Melchizedek</b>, 7:1 <b>...</b> Then follow<br> some general exhortations respecting <b>hospitality</b>, marriage, contentment, the <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">/.../drummond/introduction to the new testament/the epistle to the hebrews.htm</font><p><a href="/library/pullan/the_books_of_the_new_testament/chapter_xviii_the_epistle_to.htm"><span class="l">The Epistle to the Hebrews</span></a> <br><b>...</b> much more is that of Christ, of whom <b>Melchizedek</b>, great as he was <b>...</b> closes with a<br> practical exhortation concerning brotherly love, <b>hospitality</b>, prisoners, marriage <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">/.../pullan/the books of the new testament/chapter xviii the epistle to.htm</font><p><a href="/library/kent/the_making_of_a_nation/study_v_the_pioneers_influence.htm"><span class="l">The Pioneer's Influence Upon a Nation's Ideals.</span></a> <br><b>...</b> restored the captured spoil to the city that had been robbed and gave a liberal<br> portion, to the priest king <b>Melchizedek</b>, who appears <b>...</b> His courtly <b>hospitality</b>? <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">/.../kent/the making of a nation/study v the pioneers influence.htm</font><p><a href="/library/mcgarvey/the_four-fold_gospel/xxvi_jesus_sets_out_from_2.htm"><span class="l">Jesus Sets Out from Jud??a for Galilee.</span></a> <br><b>...</b> According to later tradition, a Jew accepted no <b>hospitality</b> from a Samaritan, and<br> to <b>...</b> here Abraham attempted to offer Isaac; 8, here he met <b>Melchizedek</b>; 9, here <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">/.../mcgarvey/the four-fold gospel/xxvi jesus sets out from 2.htm</font><p><a href="/library/ayer/a_source_book_for_ancient_church_history/index_2.htm"><span class="l">A Source Book for Ancient Church History</span></a> <br><b>...</b> Hosius, 299. <b>Hospitality</b>, 40.
