Context: • Shaveh is identified as a valley or plain, notably mentioned in Genesis 14:17. This location is referred to as the "Valley of Shaveh," which is also called the "King's Valley." It is the site where Abram (later Abraham) met Melchizedek, the king of Salem, after Abram's victory over the kings who had captured his nephew Lot.
