Lesson 5
Q: Why is it important for a woman to make sure her family appreciates the story of Abraham?
A: Because it provides a vivid illustration of true faith.
The story of Abram (who later is called Abraham) comes after the Flood and the Tower of Babel. It begins with the genealogy of Shem and shows us that Abram (Abraham) was the 10th generation after Noah. It is important to note that God, in His orderly nature, uses genealogies throughout the Bible to point towards people or families of interest. He lets us know that someone in the lineage of Jesus (the snake crusher) is going to be discussed; we are going to learn something important about that person or family and how they are significant in God’s story.
Let’s take a look at Abram (Abraham) and his part of Biblical history. In Genesis 11:27-32, it says that Abram’s father was Terah, and he had two brothers (one that died and left behind his son, Lot), and a wife named Sarai. Terah, Abram’s father, took him, Lot, and Sarai from Ur of the Chaldeans to live in Canaan, but they settled in Haran. I don’t know for sure why they decided to stay in Haran, but I assume it was because Terah was not well, since this is where Terah dies and is buried. (Genesis 11:32) I also don’t know how long they lived in Haran, but it was long enough that they took “all their possessions that they had gathered, and the people that they had acquired in Haran” (Genesis 12:5, ESV) after God called Abram to leave his country. (Genesis 12:1) Here are a few more things I have learned about the story of Abram:
- He grew up in Ur of the Chaldeans, which was a progressive nation. He went from living in a town with running water and in a house to living in a tent and having to dig wells for water.
- He was called to leave Haran and continue travelling to Canaan.
- God promised to make him into a great nation and give his descendants the Promised Land.
- He was faithful to God, but not perfect.
- He built a lot of altars to God.
- He was very rich. He had livestock, silver, and gold.
- His name was changed from Abram to Abraham.
There’s a lot to the story of Abram as compared to Noah. Abram starts at the end of Genesis 11 and stops in the middle of Genesis 25. That’s approximately 14 chapters. Noah, on the other hand, is found in the genealogy in Genesis 5 and his descendants are listed in Genesis 10. That’s only 5 chapters and most of that is dealing with the Flood. Even though much more was written about Abram, a comparison that I find interesting is found in one sentence about each of them. “Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation.” (Genesis 6:9, ESV) “And he (God) brought him outside and said, ‘Look toward heaven, and number the stars, if you are able to number them.’ Then he said to him, ‘So shall your offspring be.’And he (Abram) believed the Lord, and he counted it to him as righteousness.” (Genesis 15:5-6, ESV) So, the Bible says Noah was righteous, but it doesn’t mention his faith, and Abram had faith (or belief) which was counted as righteousness, but he wasn’t called righteous. Abram believed and trusted God, but he had his faults, such as being deceitful and running ahead of God. He knew God was going to make him into a great nation, but he didn’t know when or how. It took great faith for him to wait so long for his wife, Sarai, to conceive and have their own son of promise. They were well beyond the age of having children, but Abram still believed it would happen.
Why is this important for us to know? It helps us to remember, when we are patiently waiting for something to happen or when we are being mocked for our faithfulness to God, that Abram remained faithful to God. Even though he made mistakes, God still counted his faith as righteousness “and he was called a friend of God.” (James 2:23) That’s what I want God to think of me – faithful, righteous, and a friend! How about you?
One more very important thing – that Gabriel talks about in his RestorationCast – is the idea of the two promises made to Abram (Abraham) and how they apply to Christians. The first promise of being a great nation included the bringing in of Jesus into the world. He would be in Abraham’s lineage. As Christians, who are now the royal priesthood, we complete the promise of bringing Jesus to the world by being Christ-like, by fulfilling the Great Commission. The second promise of Abraham’s descendants being brought into the Promised Land is the same for Christians. We will be brought into a spiritual Promised Land, a land of rest.
The story of Abraham brings us hope! As a homemaker, you must teach your family how to remain faithful, to bring Jesus Christ (the serpent crusher) to the world, so when He returns He will find faith on the earth. (Luke 18:8) Only then will you be able to enter the land of rest together!
