The story of Abraham and the patriarchs (Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph) forms the backbone of biblical history. It is in their lives that God reveals His covenant purposes, establishes the line of promise, and sets the stage for the coming Messiah. These narratives, spanning Genesis 12–50, are not merely family stories but foundational accounts of God’s dealings with His people.

Through Abraham, God promised land, descendants, and blessing. Through Isaac, the promise was preserved. Through Jacob, the twelve tribes of Israel were born. Through Joseph, God preserved the nation during famine. Each patriarch’s life reflects both human frailty and divine faithfulness. As Paul later declared: “Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made” (Galatians 3:16).

This podcast examines the lives of the patriarchs and the covenant foundations they established, illustrating how God’s promises in Genesis resonate throughout the rest of Scripture.
