Today we will jump right into the story of Israel starting with the father of faith- Abram. But, as we will see, he is not the wonderful example of faith we often like to think of him as… at least not at first. We often read our own ideas of who we like to think of Abraham as back into the earliest parts of the story and that causes us to miss important details, so let’s not do this. Let’s hear what the text is saying.
