In addition to the above names, both Abraham and Joshua met men who they worshipped. Abraham met Melchizedek and gave him tithes (Genesis 14:18-20) of all he had, and Joshua met the "Captain of the host of the LORD" and worshipped him (Joshua 5:13-15). Because both Abraham and Joshua knew God personally, it is evident from these scriptures that they recognized "Melchizedek" and the "captain of the host of the LORD", as God appearing in the form of a man.
