In the Book of Genesis, the story of Abraham is a story of the conversation between God and the people of Israel. That long conversation begins with Abraham, a great man of faith.
In this story, God makes a covenant, or promise, to Abraham and his people.
Abraham and Sarah
Genesis 17:1-6, 15-16
Abraham and Sarah were very old. Sarah never had a baby.
God talked to Abraham. God said, "This is my covenant with you. You will have many children. You will live on this land forever. You will be the father of many nations."
Then God told Abraham about Sarah. "I will bless Sarah. She will give birth to a son. She will be the mother of kings."
