7:1-10 serve to explain the significance of Jesus being called a priest after the order of Melchizedek at the close of ch. 6. The author begins by referencing Gen. 14:18-20 in vv. 1-2. He then moves to intepreting the details of the Genesis text in v. 3 (name, lack of genealogy), and then he calls readers to see the implications of this remarkable passage. Melchizedek is greater than the patriarch Abraham (receiving tithes and doing the blessing), and given his age he is also greaeter than the Levitical priests, who had not even been born yet. This whole argument is preparing readers to grasp the significance of Jesus' priesthood after the order of Melchizedek in vv. 11-28.

NT

esv

Οὗτος γὰρ ὁ Μελχισέδεκ, βασιλεὺς Σαλήμ, ἱερεὺς τοῦ θεοῦ τοῦ ὑψίστου, ὁ συναντήσας Ἀβραὰμ ὑποστρέφοντι ἀπὸ τῆς κοπῆς τῶν βασιλέων

For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings

καὶ εὐλογήσας αὐτόν,

and blessed him,

progression

ᾧ καὶ δεκάτην ἀπὸ πάντων ἐμέρισεν Ἀβραάμ,

and to him Abraham apportioned a tenth part of everything.

situationresponse

πρῶτον μὲν ἑρμηνευόμενος βασιλεὺς δικαιοσύνης

He is first, by translation of his name, king of righteousness,

ἔπειτα δὲ καὶ βασιλεὺς Σαλήμ, ὅ ἐστιν βασιλεὺς εἰρήνης,

and then he is also king of Salem, that is, king of peace.

ἀπάτωρ, ἀμήτωρ, ἀγενεαλόγητος,

He is without father or mother or genealogy,

μήτε ἀρχὴν ἡμερῶν μήτε ζωῆς τέλος ἔχων,

having neither beginning of days nor end of life,

ideaexplanation

ἀφωμοιωμένος δὲ τῷ υἱῷ τοῦ θεοῦ,

but resembling the Son of God

negativepositive

μένει ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸ διηνεκές.

he continues a priest forever.

actionmanner

Θεωρεῖτε δὲ πηλίκος οὗτος ᾧ καὶ δεκάτην Ἀβραὰμ ἔδωκεν ἐκ τῶν ἀκροθινίων ὁ πατριάρχης.

See how great this man was to whom Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth of the spoils!

καὶ οἱ μὲν ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν Λευεὶ τὴν ἱερατείαν λαμβάνοντες ἐντολὴν ἔχουσιν ἀποδεκατοῦν τὸν λαὸν κατὰ τὸν νόμον, τοῦτ’ ἔστιν τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτῶν,

And those descendants of Levi who receive the priestly office have a commandment in the law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brothers,

καίπερ ἐξεληλυθότας ἐκ τῆς ὀσφύος Ἀβραάμ·

though these also are descended from Abraham.

concessive

ὁ δὲ μὴ γενεαλογούμενος ἐξ αὐτῶν δεδεκάτωκεν Ἀβραάμ,

But this man who does not have his descent from them received tithes from Abraham

καὶ τὸν ἔχοντα τὰς ἐπαγγελίας εὐλόγηκεν.

and blessed him who had the promises.

alternative

χωρὶς δὲ πάσης ἀντιλογίας τὸ ἔλαττον ὑπὸ τοῦ κρείττονος εὐλογεῖται.

[and] it is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.

καὶ ὧδε μὲν δεκάτας ἀποθνῄσκοντες ἄνθρωποι λαμβάνουσιν,

And in the one case tithes are received by mortal men,

ἐκεῖ δὲ μαρτυρούμενος ὅτι ζῇ.

but in the other case, by one of whom it is testified that he lives.

καὶ ὡς ἔπος εἰπεῖν, διὰ Ἀβραὰμ καὶ Λευεὶς ὁ δεκάτας λαμβάνων δεδεκάτωται·

One might even say that Levi himself, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham,

ἔτι γὰρ ἐν τῇ ὀσφύϊ τοῦ πατρὸς ἦν

for he was still in the loins of his ancestor

ὅτε συνήντησεν αὐτῷ ὁ Μελχισεδέκ.

when Melchizedek met him.
