NASB | Genesis 14:18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine; now he was a priest of God Most High. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Genesis 14:18 Melchizedek king of Salem (ancient Jerusalem) brought out bread and wine [for them]; he was the priest of God Most High. |
Bible Question (short): Bread and wine a way to bless? |
Question (full): Can anyone help expand what is happening here? Melchizedek brings bread and wine and blesses Abram. Melchizedek was a priest of Jehovah our god. We use bread and wine in our communion as Jesus led us to do. Did Rabbis and high priests use bread and wine to bless people when Abram was alive? Was this a traditional worship custom? Are any records available to find out? |
