In the Hebrew Bible, Melchizedek (/mɛlˈkɪzədɛk/, Mel-key-za-deck) [a] was the king of Salem and priest of El Elyon (often translated as 'most high God'). He is first mentioned in Genesis 14:18–20, [3] where he brings out bread and wine and then blesses Abram, and El Elyon or "the Lord, God Most High".
11Q13, also 11QMelch or the Melchizedek document, is a fragmentary manuscript among the Dead Sea Scrolls (from Cave 11) which mentions Melchizedek as leader of God's angels in a war in Heaven against the angels of darkness instead of the more familiar Archangel Michael.

The Story of Melchizedek or History of Melchizedek (Latin: Historia de Melchisedech) is an anonymous apocryphal account of the life of Melchizedek originally written in Greek.
