Bible Studies: Melchizedek
By J.L. Horton

Who was Melchizedek-the mysterious priest-king who blessed Abraham, received a tenth of the spoils, and then vanished from the biblical narrative? Why does the psalmist declare that the Messiah will be "a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek," and why does the New Testament book of Hebrews return to his story as the key to understanding Christ's eternal priesthood?

In this clear and engaging Bible study, J.L. Horton guides readers through the few but powerful passages about Melchizedek in Genesis, Psalms, and Hebrews. Drawing on historical background, theological insight, and careful attention to the text, this book explores:

Melchizedek's role as both king and priest in the ancient world

The meaning behind his name and the city of Salem

The significance of Abraham's tithe and Melchizedek's blessing

How the bread and wine point forward to Christ

Why the priesthood of Melchizedek is central to understanding Jesus' ministry today

Perfect for personal study or small groups, Melchizedek: Priest of the Most High God opens the Scriptures to show how a short encounter in Genesis reveals a timeless truth: God's plan of redemption has always been unfolding-through priests and kings, promises and covenants-toward the eternal reign of Jesus Christ.
