Bible commentaries

Melchizedek, king of Salem and priest of the most high God, referred to God twice as "El Elyon". Apparently, Melchizedek was Canaanite, as he lived among them as their king and he does not seem to have known God as ELOHIM, or YAHWEH, or EL SHADDAI. Melchizedek knew EL ELYON, the most high God. When this name appears in the Scripture it shows us his relationship with the creation, indicating that God is above all this created. EL ELYON is the God of gods, the Lord of lords and the King of kings.
