Commentary on Hebrews 7:2
Abraham gave Melchizedek 'tithes of all,' acknowledging his superiority. His name means 'King of righteousness' and his title 'King of Salem' means 'King of peace.' This typology is significant—Christ is first our righteousness (justification must precede peace) then our peace (reconciliation with God). The order matters: peace with God comes through the righteousness of Christ.
