Malek is King. Ztedek is righteousness. King of Salem is King of Peace. There is only One I know f Who may be called King of Righteousness and King of Peace.
One may find all the theocratic labels invented by men to say this is not the Savior, but the fact is Abraham who worshipped the living God not only paid hommage to Him, he also gave Him offerings. He would never have done this for a mere flesh and blood man. He would not for other kings, but for This One.
Jesus, Yeshua, would naturally be High Priest after this order because it is His Order... There is no other Heavenly High Priest. Meditate on it. There is no other manner of saying Who He is.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God...............the same is Jesus Christ, Yeshua.
Nothing that is made was not made by Him..............The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are One, Isaiah 9 is one confirmation of this.
Reread the first chapter of John. Jesus has always been.

What needs to be understood in the comparisons of Hebrews 7 are the striking similarities. Both men have a genealogy, both men are born of human families, both men had a father and a mother, both men were born and died. To recognize that all of the things applied to Jesus and not Melchizedek fails to recognize the force of the typology.
The comparison of their priesthoods are also the same. Neither priesthood had a beginning of days nor end of life. In other words, both remain priests forever. Both priesthoods had no genealogy. In other words, neither was received from a predecessor nor passed on to a successor, both priesthoods have an endless life.

Without father, without mother.
Heb 7:1
For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;
Heb 7:2
To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
Heb 7:3
Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.
This certainly describes the Son of Yahweh.

Now why would there be mention of a priesthood without father and without mother? None of this is terribly important regarding our salvation by the Blood of the Lamb. If you should be correct on this point, it does not worry me about our salvation. At this point, no argument outside the Word will convince me, nor interpretations of words. I believe what I have posted, but I am not here to be right about points of facts, preferring to fellowship in Yeshua in Spirit and truth. This does not really fall under the heading of proving all things, it is an interesting part of our spiritual heritage, but knowing or not knowing for certain will not send anyone into the outer darkness.
Forgive my not indicating I did read your post, and it is all conjecture as far as I can see. Nowhere does it stat Melchisedek was a man, on the contrary. Again, I am not convinced by any writings about the Word, however the Word has me convcinced Melchisedek was the King of Righteousness and the King of Salem with no father and no mother.
Now, it is my bedtime. Good night, or buenas noches desde España...............hasta pronto.

Jesus is and always has been the Logos but, he has never been Melchizedek. The nature of O.T. typology is that whatever stands as the type is never the reality of the thing it represents. For example, Moses was the type of Christ but, he was not Christ himself. In the same way, Melchizedek is the type of priest that represents the priesthood of Jesus but, he himself was not Jesus.
Melchizedek was king of Salem,which is king of peace,and the priest of the most high God,who blessed Abraham,who Abraham gave a tenth of the spoils of a war he was involved in,tithes,before the Leviticus priesthood.
The Bible says He was without father,without mother,without descent,having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.
Jesus is not Melchizedek incarnate,and Jesus is not Melchizedek at all,but a priest after the order of Melchizedek,or His priestly office,that exceeds the Leviticus priestly office.
Melchizedek is a bodily manifestation of God,for He is without father,or mother,having neither beginning of days,or end of life,but Melchizedek is not a permanent bodily manifestation of God.
Jesus is the only permanent manifestation of God,and the only bodily manifestation of God,born of a woman,and the only begotten Son of God.
Melchizedek was a temporary manifestation of God,a bodily manifestation made from the dust of the earth,which God appeared the same way to Abraham,with two of His angels,on another occasion.
