Genesis 12-15, Psalm 14

Genesis 12 - 1:02 . Genesis 13 - 4:34 . Genesis 14 - 8:26 . Genesis 15 - 13:07 . Psalm 14 - 17:23 . Today, we’re introduced to Abram, a man who is called by God to leave his family and his country and venture to a land that God will show him. While we know Abram lineage, what we know of Abram’s character only begins after the Lord calls him to go. We learn that Abram is a man capable of great faith and great cowardice, as puts his wife in a compromising situation in order to save his own skin. Later, the Lord confirms his covenant with Abram by way of an ancient practice that would have been understood by the culture. By passing between the split carcasses of a series of animals, the one committing to covenant is basically saying, “May I become like this if I don’t fulfill my vow.” ::: Christian Standard Bible translation.
