A set of Scriptural references to this man is interrupted when the author accuses readers of being "dull of hearing." This man's name appears after a reference to a "womb of the dawn" and the "dew of youth" in the original Psalm 110, verse 4. In Rabbinic lore, Noah's son Shem is equated with this man. According to one text, Levi was "yet in the loins of his father" upon meeting this man. This non-Jewish worshipper of "El Elyon," or "God Most High," brought out bread and wine before giving a tithe to all in his presence in the book of Genesis. Before they go on mission, almost all baptized adult Mormon males join his namesake "priesthood." His name means "my king is righteous" in Hebrew, and Jesus called a priest after the order of this man by the New Testament's Epistle to the Hebrews. For 10 points, name this king of Salem and archetypical priest who blesses Abram.
