Melchizedek: The Truth Behind the Twisted Tale

🔹 Abram Defeated the Kings — Then a Local King Came Out

Abram rescued Lot and defeated invading kings.
On his way back, he passed through Salem — an early city later called Jerusalem.
A local king, named Malki-Tzedek, came out to meet him.
This man was not a priest of Yhwh, and Yhwh’s name is completely absent from the Melchizedek section.
The phrase used is El Elyon — which simply means “Most High El” and was used by many Semitic peoples, not just Hebrews.

🔹 This King Gave Him Food — and Blessed Him

Bread and wine were common travel food — not a ritual.
The “blessing” was a diplomatic act, like kings did after battle.
It was not a priestly blessing from Yhwh. That is added meaning later by others.
Abram responded with a gift of spoils — normal war practice. This was not a tithe, and Yhwh never commanded it.

🔹 The Story Was Later Twisted

This moment was harmless until later scribes — during the Davidic and Second Temple periods — began twisting it:

Psalm 110 calls him part of an “eternal priesthood” — but this is poetry, not law
The Dead Sea Scrolls (11QMelchizedek) turn him into a mythical heavenly judge
The Greek New Testament (Hebrews 7) lies outright, claiming Melchizedek:
Had no father or mother
Had no beginning or end
Was like the “Son of God”

→ None of this is in the Torah or real scrolls

🔥 The Real Purpose of the Insertion

The edited Melchizedek story was used to:

Create a priesthood apart from Levi
Lay the foundation for later Greek lies — that someone (like Jesus) could be a priest “after the order of Melchizedek”
Shift power away from Torah obedience and build new religious systems with man-made authority

✅ But the Real Truth Is Clear

Yhwh alone is El — He needs no priest, no helper
Abram walked with Yhwh directly — no middle-man
Melchizedek was just a man, a local king, giving food and respect
There is no law, no covenant, no priesthood, and no authority tied to him
The real scrolls do not support any religion based on his name
