Gen. 14:18–20
Then Melchizedek, king of Salem, brought out bread and wine—he was a priest of EL Elyon. 19 He blessed him and said, “Blessed be Abram by EL ELYON, Creator of heaven and earth, 20 and blessed be EL ELYON, Who gave over your enemies into your hand.” Then Abram gave him a tenth of everything
Hebrews 7:11
The LORD has sworn
and will not change HIS mind:
‘YOU are a priest forever,
in the order of Melchizedek’”
(Psalm 110:4)
Not the order of Aaron, but of
Melchizedek
Rev.19:16
On His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, “King of kings, and Lord of lords
Hebrews 4:14-16
Therefore, since we have a great Kohen Gadol (Priest Great) who has passed through the heavens, Yeshua Ben-Elohim, let us hold firmly to our confessed allegiance. 15 For we do not have a kohen Gadol who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but ONE who has been tempted in all the same ways—yet without sin. 16 Therefore let us draw near to the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace for help in time of need.
John 1:1-5
In the beginning was the Word. The Word was with ELOHIM, and the Word was ELOHIM. 2 HE was with ELOHIM in the beginning. 3 All things were made through HIM, and apart from HIM, nothing was made that has come into being. 4 In HIM was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overpowered it.
Gen.49:10
Melchizedek Priest and King
Melchizedek came before the tribes of the nation of Israel and therefore could have been a Canaanite.
No record of Melchizedek’s birth or death.
Abram came from the land of Ur.
Abram received blessings.
Abram gave a tithe of everything.
The scepter shall not depart from Judah
Matthew 22:44-46
Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, YESHUA asked them a question, 42 saying, “What do you think about the MASHIACH? Whose Son is He?” “David’s,” they say to HIM. 43 “Then how is it,” HE says to them, “that David by the RUACH calls HIM ADONIA’? 44 For he says, ‘ADONIA said to MY ADONIA, “Sit at MY right hand, until I put YOUR enemies under YOUR feet.”’
45 If David then calls HIM ‘ADONIA,’ how is HE his son?” 46 No one was able to answer HIM a word. Nor did anyone dare from that day on to question HIM any longer.
Psalm 110:4-5;TLV; Matthew 22:44-46
Adonai declares to my ADONIA: “Sit at My right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for Your feet.” 2 Adonai will extend your mighty rod from Zion: “Rule in the midst of your enemies.” 3 Your people will be a freewill offering in a day of your power. In holy splendors, from dawn’s womb, yours is the dew of your youth. 4 Adonai has sworn, and will not change His mind: “You are a Kohen forever according to the order of Melchizedek.”
Peter 2:9
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for ELOHIM’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the praises of the ONE who called you out of darkness into HIS marvelous light.
Corinthians 1:29-30
So that no human might boast before ELOHIM. 30 But because of HIM you are in MASHIACH Yeshua, who became to us wisdom from ELOHIM and righteousness and holiness and redemption
Timothy 2:10-13
Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the chosen, so they might obtain the salvation that is in MASHIACH Yeshua with eternal glory. 11 Trustworthy is the saying: If we died with Him, we will also live with Him; 12 if we endure, we will also reign with Him; if we deny Him, He will also deny us; 13 if we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself
Ephesians 4:13
This will continue until we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of BEN-ELOHIM—to mature adulthood, to the measure of the stature of (standard) MASHIACH’s fullness.
