Hebrews 7:1-7

This Melchizedek was king of Salemand priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the defeat of the kings and blessed him, and Abraham gave him a tenth of everything. First, the name Melchizedek means “king of righteousness”; then also, “king of Salem” means “king of peace.” Without father or mother, without genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, resembling the Son of God, he remains a priest forever.
Just think how great he was: Even the patriarch Abraham gave him a tenth of the plunder! Now the law requires the descendants of Levi who become priests to collect a tenth from the people—that is, from their fellow Israelites—even though they also are descended from Abraham.This man, however, did not trace his descent from Levi, yet he collected a tenth from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises. And without doubt the lesser is blessed by the greater.

Psalm 87:5

Indeed, of Zion it will be said,
    “This one and that one were born in her,
    and the Most High himself will establish her.”

Psalm 73:10-11

10 Therefore their people turn to them
    and drink up waters in abundance.[a]
11 They say, “How would God know?
    Does the Most High know anything?”
John 11:9

Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
Luke 22:59

After about an hour had passed, another man began to insist, saying, "Certainly this man also was with Him, for he is a Galilean too."
Acts 19:34
But when they recognized that he was a Jew, a single outcry arose from them all as they shouted for about two hours, "Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!"
Revelation 8:1
When the Lamb broke the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
