War came to the land in the days of Abram and Lot when five subject kings rebelled against Chedorlaomer, or Kedorlaomer and Lot was captured (Genesis 13:5--14:24). Abraham rallied his men, attacked at night, conquered the enemy, and rescued Lot. In this painting, he is sharing the spoils of battle with Melchizedek, king of Salem.
