Back to The Bible’s Difficult Scriptures Explained!
Back to By David C. Pack
Genesis 14:18
“And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and He was the priest of the most high God.”
Who was Melchizedek? Answer: He was Jesus Christ!
Hebrews 6:19-20 and Hebrews 7:1-6 can be read phrase by phrase to prove this. Notice there: Only One who was God could be fully “righteous.” Also, men do not know the way of “peace” (Isa. 59:8). Finally, having “no beginning or end” can only describe one who is eternal. This could not possibly refer to any human being. Note these passages:
(1) Hebrews 5:5-6, 10
(2) Psalms 110:4
(3) Acts 2:24—Jesus Christ is alive today.
(4) Hebrews 4:14 and 5:5-6, again—references “High Priest after the order of Melchizedek.”
This subject is addressed more fully in the Hebrews 6:20-7:17 explanation.
