Abraham’s involvement in rescuing Lot radically changed the course of the war and brought great victory to the kings of the land, who understood as well that this was more than a matter of rescuing a private individual. Thus it was that Melchizedek king of Salem blessed Abraham upon conclusion of the war: “Blessed be Abram of G-d Most High, creator of heaven and earth” (Gen. 14:19).
