  9. Genesis 14:5-6 5And in the fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer, and the kings that were with him, and smote the Rephaims in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emims in Shaveh Kiriathaim, 6And the Horites in their mount Seir, unto Elparan, which is by the wilderness.

  10. Rephaim, Zuzim, and Emim • Likely not tribes • Identified with the Nephilim • Fallen Angels that mated • with human females • Horites, Amelikites, Amorites • are known tribes

  11. Genesis 14:7 And they returned, and came to Enmishpat, which is Kadesh, and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that dwelt in Hazezontamar.

  12. Genesis 14:8-9 8And there went out the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar;) and they joined battle with them in the vale of Siddim; 9With Chedorlaomer the king of Elam, and with Tidal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings with five.

  13. Chedorlaomer and his allies

  14. Genesis 14:10-12 10And the vale of Siddim was full of slimepits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there; and they that remained fled to the mountain. 11And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their victuals, and went their way. 12And they took Lot, Abram’s brother’s son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.

  15. Battle in the Valley of Siddim Lot is taken Abraham takes 318 men to free Lot

  16. Genesis 14:13-14 13And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these were confederate with Abram. 14And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them unto Dan.

  17. Abraham Pursues The Kings • Catches up at the future • place called Damascus • Land of Dan (tribe of • Israel 600 years later) • Night-time surprise • attack, Lot rescued, booty • retaken • Abraham returns to a • rousing welcome

Genesis 14:15-16 15And he divided himself against them, he and his servants, by night, and smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus. 16And he brought back all the goods, and also brought again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people.

  19. Genesis 14:17 And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king’s dale.

  20.

And he gave him tithes of all.

  21. Bread and Wine • Law of First Mention – profound significance • Matt 26:26 Jesus identifies bread as His Body (Type) • Matt 26:28 Jesus identifies wine as His Blood (Type) • Gen 40:1-4 Baker and Wine Steward are put in jail with • Joseph – dreams with three days etc. • Boaz offers bread and wine to Ruth (Ruth 2:14) • Ecc 9:7 eat bread with joy, drink wine with a merry • heart • Isa 36:17 Israel is the “land of bread and vineyards” • Passover meal – bread and wine • Melchizedek and the patriarchs may have understood • the doctrine of atonement

  22. Melchizedek King of Shalem • Melchizedek a king and a • high priest • Worships El Elyon (God • Most High) • King of Sodom also greets • Abraham • Melchizedek is probably a • title not a name • “names” of God El Elyon, • El shaddai, God of • Heavenly Hosts… all of • these are “reputations”

  23. Melchizedek = King of Righteousness • Hebrews 7:1-7 • Parallels drawn • between • Melchizedek and • Yeshua • Some say • Melchizedek may • have been Shem, son • of Noah … Shem • was still alive at this • time • Shem the “line of • good” from Noah

  24. Paul – Hebrews 7:1-28 • Paul's scholarship is well known even to the Jews. • Jewish Yeshivas' or schools teach Paul’s writings • to gain understanding. • They admire Paul’s ability to teach and to write. • Paul had a great effect on Jews and Christians. • Paul teaches the relationship of Jews and Christians Rhyme in Yeshivas’: Roses are reddish, Violets are bluish, If it wasn’t for Paul We would all be Jewish

  26. Genesis 14:22 22And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth, 23That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich: 24Save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men which went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion.
