Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

Jerusalem In The Scriptures

Genesis 14

17. After Abram returned from defeating Kedorlaomer and the kings allied with him, the king of Sodom came out to meet him in the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley).

18. Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. He was priest of God Most High, 19. and he blessed Abram, saying,

“Blessed be Abram by God Most High,

Creator of heaven and earth.
20. And praise be to God Most High,
who delivered your enemies into your hand.”

Then Abram gave him a tenth of everything.

21. The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people and keep the goods for yourself.”

22. But Abram said to the king of Sodom, “With raised hand I have sworn an oath to the Lord, God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth, 23. that I will accept nothing belonging to you, not even a thread or the strap of a sandal, so that you will never be able to say, ‘I made Abram rich.’ 24. I will accept nothing but what my men have eaten and the share that belongs to the men who went with me—to Aner, Eshkol and Mamre. Let them have their share.”

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

We are embarking on a new adventure today! Jerusalem is mentioned so many times in both the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures, that it is impossible to ignore. We will go in Chronological Order, starting with the encounter with Melchizadek.This is from The Easton Dictionary which goes back to 1897:

Called also Salem, Ariel, Jebus, the "city of God," the "holy city;" by the modern Arabs el-Khuds, meaning "the holy;" once "the city of Judah" (2 Chronicles 25:28). This name is in the original in the dual form, and means "possession of peace," or "foundation of peace." The dual form probably refers to the two mountains on which it was built, viz., Zion and Moriah; or, as some suppose, to the two parts of the city, the "upper" and the "lower city."

Jerusalem is a "mountain city enthroned on a mountain fastness" (Compare Psalms 68:15,16; 87:1; 125:2;76:1,2; 122:3). It stands on the edge of one of the highest table-lands in Palestine, and is surrounded on the south-eastern, the southern, and the western sides by deep and precipitous ravines. It is first mentioned in Scripture under the name Salem (Genesis 14:18; compare (Psalms 76:2). When first mentioned under the name Jerusalem, Adonizedek was its king (Joshua 10:1). It is afterwards named among the cities of Benjamin (Judges 19:10; 1 Chronicles 11:4); but in the time of David it was divided between Benjamin and Judah. After the death of Joshua the city was taken and set on fire by the men of Judah (Judges 1:1-8); but the Jebusites were not wholly driven out of it. The city is not again mentioned till we are told that David brought the head of Goliath thither (1 Samuel 17:54). David afterwards led his forces against the Jebusites still residing within its walls, and drove them out, fixing his own dwelling on Zion, which he called "the city of David" (2 Samuel 5:5-9; 1 Chronicles 11:4-8). Here he built an altar to the Lord on the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite (2 Samuel 24:15-25), and thither he brought up the ark of the covenant and placed it in the new tabernacle which he had prepared for it. Jerusalem now became the capital of the kingdom.

Today's Scripture:

“Blessed be Abram by God Most High,

Creator of heaven and earth.
20. And praise be to God Most High,
who delivered your enemies into your hand.”

[Former Fetus]

It's always amazed me that Melchizadek referred to the Lord as El Elyon (Most High God). It tells me that He will reveal Himself to EVERYONE who honestly and earnestly seek Him.
