	Melchizedek in Second-Temple Interpretation
		Moreover, Melchizedek, assumed to be an angel (and probably identical to Michael and the Prince of Light), is given a role in the eschatological salvation of the righteous and judgment of the wicked.
		In this context, Ps 82:1-2 is interpreted eschatologically of Melchizedek's judgment of the fallen angels: the "god" (elohim) who takes his stand in the assembly of God (el) is the heavenly being Melchizedek; he will judge in the midst of the other "gods" (elohim) (2.9-14).
		Given Melchizedek's identification with Michael/Prince of Light, there is a good chance that Melchizedek would have been understood as this presiding priestly angel, which would make him the heavenly high priest.

	The Meal of Melchizedek
		Melchizedek is the priest of God Most High, and he blessed Abraham; thus, he was superior to Abraham.

		Second: Melchizedek's title 'king of Shalem' lends itself, with equal facility, to a fanciful association with the Hebrew words, shalom, 'peace,' and shallem, 'requite', so that he can at once be identified with the promised redeemer who will bring both peace to the faithful and requital to the wicked.
		It is intended by this Notice that the Dominion of Melchizedek be and hereby is an acceding "party" to the Convention, as the term "party" is signified in the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties U.N. 679 (1969) at Article 2, Paragraphs 1(a), (b) and (g), and Article 11.
