Genesis 13

Abram & Lot Separate. . .

They separated because they both had so much, that they servants (herdsman) were starting to argue & fight with each other. Abram knew he did not want to have animosity with Lot, so Abram suggested they separate. Abram "Let Go of The Dead Weight"! There was only so far Abram could go with Lot. In order to go further, the way God wanted, was to go in the opposite direction of Lot. Once Abram did, God showed him about staying Humble, walking in humility!

When Lot & Abram first separated, Abram first pitched his tent in Canaan.

Hebrew Meaning of Canaan- Lowland. Derived from the root word Kana, meaning-Humble

When Lot & Abram first separated, Lot pitched his tent near the city of Sodom.

When God moved Abram on, He moved him to dwell in Mamre- meaning Strength or Fatness.
