ABRAHAM

MODULE 2: SESSSION 8: God’s Second Promise to Abraham

God’s promise to make Avram’s descendants “like the dust” evokes the creation of the human in Genesis 2. God’s invitation for Avram to “walk about” the land carries on the theme of the righteous one walking in intimacy with God. God provides the land as an ark-like refuge of safety for Avram in the Eden hills while Lot chooses a false Eden down below, which will lead to ruin.
