Abraham » Is blessed by melchizedek
For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham as he returned from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him, to whom also Abraham gave a tenth of all, first being interpreted king of righteousness, and then also king of Salem, which is king of peace, without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither a beginning of days nor end of life, but being made like the Son of God, continues a priest forever. read more.
And behold, how great this man was, to whom even Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth of the spoils. And the sons of Levi who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to tithe the people according to the law, that is their brothers, although descended from Abraham; but he whose descent is not reckoned from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him who has the promises. But beyond all contradiction, the less is blessed by the greater. And here, men who die receive tithes, but there, one of whom it is testified that he lives. And so to speak, Levi also who receives tithes paid tithes through Abraham; for he was yet in his father when Melchisedec met him.

If therefore there was perfection through the Levitical priesthood,??or the people received the law under it,??hat need was there that another priest should arise after the order of Melchisedec and not to be called after the order of Aaron? For the priesthood being changed, of necessity also there is made a change of the law. For he of whom these things are said belonged to another tribe, of which no one attended to the altar; for it is evident that our Lord arose from Judah, in respect to which tribe Moses said nothing concerning priests. And moreover, [this] is still further evident, if another priest is raised up according to the likeness of Melchisedec, who was not a priest after the law of an external commandment, but after the power of imperishable life. For it is testified, Thou art a priest forever, after the order of Melchisedec. For there is an abrogation of the commandment which goes before, on account of its weakness and unprofitableness; for the law made nothing perfect, but was the introduction of a better hope through which we draw nigh to God. And as he was not [constituted] without swearing,??21 for they were made priests without swearing, but he with swearing by him who says to him, The Lord swore, and he will not change, You are a priest forever;??22 by so much is Jesus the pledge of a better covenant.
