Gen. 14:16-28 . Restore and reward.

That righteous Abraham not only goes and gets the goods which were given by God, and taken away, but he receives a tremendous meeting with a king who has a very important place in the bible.
As we examine what Abraham did in helping others to recover their blessings, Abraham pictures what Melchisedec reveals.

Heb.7:1  He is the priest of the most high God.   Jesus who is now our great high priest . Like Melchisedec who has a never ending priesthood,  prays in heaven for us to be strong against our foes. Also to have grace through all circumstances  He undertakes our cause.  This is that which Abraham was doing for others.  Abraham was not able to know Jesus like we do so now we understand that meaning of Melchisede   So Jesus now is filling that place of doing for us what Abraham did for his people.  But of coarse that is on a far greater level and amount of grace.
