15 “Blessed are you Abraham, servant of the Most High God, who possesses the heavens and the earth;
and blessed be the Most High God, who delivered your adversaries into your hands. "







(Great revelations of Melchizedec and his people. The victors are crowned. Upon being crowned,
Abraham is moved to observe deep wounds in the hands of Melchizedek. Melchizedek promises to tell
his story. Melchizedek, by breaking bread and wine, is honored. The 144 pearls as tithe. The instructions
and prophecies of Melchizedek.)
1 Surprised by the festive reception, we were introduced to the city, where the beauty of the mansions
and gardens caused us much admiration. Everything there was pure and full of peace.
2 We were received in the royal palace, built on Mount Zion. There, a new surprise awaited us:
3 The great throne room was all adorned with representations of our victory over enemies. There was a
very long table in the middle of the room, covered by fine linen towels adorned with gold threads and
precious stones. There were 304 crowns on the table, each bringing the inscription of a winner's name.
In a gesture that surprised us again, Melchizedek, taking the crowns, began placing them on the head of
each of us, starting with Lot and his daughters. We were all admired by the fact that the king of Salem
knew us individually, and by having those crowns ready long before we were victors.
4 I watched the joy of my crowned companions, when, taking a crown similar to his, the king of Salem
addressed me with a smile. As I lifted it over my head, I noticed something that I had not perceived until
then: His hands brought deep wound scars. Overcome by a feeling of gratitude, I fell at his feet and,
moved, kissed his kind hands, bathing them with my tears.
5 When I got up, I asked him the meaning of those scars. With a tender smile, he promised that he
would tell me the whole story of that prosperous kingdom, and how much it cost him to obtain his
peace.
6 After being crowned, Melchizedek made us sit around the great table, and began to serve us bread
and wine; From that moment, we began to honor him as Priest of the Most High God.
