Who says Melchizedek did not? The reason it is held by Jewish tradition that this was Shem, was because Shem outlived even Abraham. He was around during this whole time. There is nothing that tells us that Melchizedek was anything but a priest and a human.
Even if he was something such as an angel of the Lord that we seem many times in OT..well usually that is presented with something saying it is, so it doesn't fit either.

melchisedec was the word of God translated into flesh.what was his purpose?
to be the first king in salem(jerusalem was not a city at that time) salem means,peace.
melchisedec had no population to rule over; and yet he is king, how can you be a king
with no kingdom? his kingdom is is a spititual kingdom.
he is king of peace and a king of righteousness. anything to do with peace and righteousness he is king of.

i agree with her on both of her posts.
Melchizedek was a priest who was of a priesthood that is HIGHER than Aaronic order who was appointed by Moses with the old convenant. Jesus was BEFORE this and traces His PRIESTHOOD back to Melchizedek order and rebukes the Pharisees who trace theirs back to Aaron. there could be two types of priest back then two. we have countless denominations and sects of christainity and judaism now.
why the question? is it a salvation issue?
blessings to all who walk in the Will of God.
Thank you AnandaHya! I have still yet to figure out where people are getting the idea that he was any of the other things listed (Jesus, Word of God, or an angel) when it says nothing of the sort
It seems that is much adding of ideas to this..when it is never mentioned
We may be able to guess and come up with our own ideas, but we can't really know anything more than the fact he was a priest that Abraham payed tithes too..as well as the rest of the things i've put up about what the bible actually says.

O
YEAH VERY SORRY FOR MY IDEA!
THATS THIS PERSON THAT THE FATHER OF FAITH PAY HIS TITHES TO MADE HASTED MAKE FOOD FOR WAS EOLHIM AND IT DOES SAY IN YOUR BIBLE THAT ABRAHAM CALLED HIM LORD! CHECK WHAT THAT MEANs I BEG YOU TO DO that FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR SOUL! IF I TELL WHAT THAT MEANS YOU MAY SAY THATS MY IDEA. BUT IF NOT AND YOU ARE SEEKING THE LORD! CHECK IN THE GREEK THAT WORD LORD MEANS THEN COME BACK MAY THE LORD SPEAK TO YOUR HEART IN THIS LATE HOUR.

Yes, but he was a high priest without beginning and without end. No mother or father. No beginning of life and no end. He just appeared out of no-where and was a king. But Jerusalem, the city was not yet formed, so he was the king of who? He has no population to rule over. He then vanishes.....
His title is the King of Peace & Righteousness. Who does this title belong to? Can you think of anyone?
If Jesus was the first, and the last, and he is coming back to reclaim his place in Salem (JeruSALEM) then wouldn't you say he was that FIRST one there and will return to be the LAST to rule from Jerusalem. The scriptures will be fulfilled then. Jesus is not coming to take another ones throne, like King david, he is reclaiming his own throne. What belongs to him.
Is there any high priest besides Jesus?
Do you know what being translated means? It is not born, it just changes form.

Actually, as I've shown before, it seems that the name actually transfers to 'righteousness is my king'. This is only from what I've found, it could be incorrect.
And I'll say once again..what says that Melchizedek didn't have an end? Just because his birth isn't mentioned doesn't mean he doesn't have a beginning.
I also pointed out that it's been passed through Hebrew tradition that this was Shem, Melchizedek being his title while in position.
I consider that to be far more likely, considering the Jews did take great care to keep the OT scriptures, and their meaning, in tact throughout all the time they had it.

I don't disagree that he is a type of Christ, a representation of Him from the OT. My only disagreement was with people saying he was Christ. There is no solid evidence for it.
Who he was, as far as we can actually tell, is stated quite clearly.
A priest of the mos high God, to whom Abram payed tithed before tithes were required. Not of the Aaronic priesthood for High Priest, but before, and above it. A representation of what was to come as many things in the OT were.
And then we find that Jesus was what to come. He followed after the neverending order of Melchizedek.

I agree, Christ is not Melchizedek. Melchizedek is a representative of Christ however. And Hebrews lays this out.
1. Melchizedek was king of Salem (which later became known as Jerusalem) As Christ will be king when he comes and establishes his kingdom on Earth on David's throne.
2. Melchizedek had no beginning or End. As Christ did not.
etc etc.
Abraham did not see Melchizedek as God, or son of man, or an angel of God. He saw him as a king. We should not try to make Melchizedek something he is not.
