Melchizedek (Thorndike Press Large Print Christian Fiction)
Melchizedek is a fairly obscure biblical figure. A descendant of Noah, he eventually became King of Salem. Traylor (Jerusalem: The City of God, Harvest House, 1995) tells the story in flashbacks of a man who reluctantly became king, having to fight members of his own family to reign. Since little is known about Melchizedek, Traylor expands freely. The result is a well-rounded character study of a man led by God into a situation he isn't certain he deserves or wants. A skillful portrait.Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
