The Story of Melchizedek

THE STORY OF MELCHIZEDEK, translated recently in Bauckham, Davila, Panayotov (eds.), Old Testament Pseudepigrapha: More Noncanonical Scriptures vol. 1 (Eerdmans, 2013), is profiled by Tomas Garcia-Huidobro in his Spanish-language blog, Experiencias Religiosas y Escrituras: La Historia de Melquizedek (apócrifo cristiano).

I usually just link to English-language blogs, but I do follow this one and it is worth a look. The masthead gives its subject matter as "temprano misticismo judío, cristiano, y gnóstico como medios para iluminar los orígenes del cristianismo."
