📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Genesis, after Abraham's victory in battle against several kings, he meets Melchizedek, who is portrayed as both a king of Salem and a priest of God Most High. Abraham honors Melchizedek by giving him a tenth of the spoils, which signifies respect and acknowledgment of his priestly role. The author of Hebrews later uses this historical encounter to draw parallels between Melchizedek and Jesus, emphasizing a priesthood that predates and surpasses the Levitical system.
