NASB | Genesis 14:20 And blessed be God Most High, Who has delivered your enemies into your hand." He gave him a tenth of all. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 2015 |
Genesis 14:20 And blessed, praised, and glorified be God Most High, Who has given your enemies into your hand." And Abram gave him a tenth of all [the treasure he had taken in battle]. [Heb 7:1-10] |
Bible Question (short): Who is giving the tenth? |
Question (full): Who is giving the tenth of all here? (Please read from v 14 onward to the end of this chapter.) As I read this passage it is confusing. I'm wondering if Abram gave ALL he returned with to Melchizedeck and then HE (Melchizedeck) gave a tenth of all to Abram. Any Hebrew scholars out there to shed some light on how this is translated as Abram giving the tenth? (Let's keep Hebrews 7:4 out of this.) |
