Hebrews 7:2 in Context — Hebrews 7

1 Porque este Melquisedeque, rei de Salém, sacerdote do Deus Altíssimo, o qual se encontrou com Abraão, que estava retornando da matança dos reis, e o abençoou;

2 a quem também Abraão deu o dízimo de tudo; primeiramente significa Rei de justiça, e depois também rei de Salém, que é, rei de paz;

3 sem pai, sem mãe, sem genealogia, sem ter princípio de dias, nem fim de vida; porém, sendo feito semelhante ao Filho de Deus, permanece sacerdote para sempre.

4 Considerai, pois, como ele era grande, a quem até o patriarca Abraão deu o dízimo dos despojos.
