The Promises

Genesis 12:2

  • Abraham would be a great nation.

  • Abraham’s name would be great.

  • Abraham would be a blessing (i.e., through his seed, Christ would come—Acts 3:25–26).

Genesis 17:1–9

  • God told Abraham that He would multiply him.

  • Many nations would come from him.

  • Kings would also come, which occurred with others and with David, which led to Christ.

  • God promised the land of Canaan.

Genesis 26:4

  • This verse repeats the assurance of land, of Christ, and having many descendants (equating it to the number of stars in heaven). Genesis 22:17 also explains that Abraham’s fruitfulness would be like the sand upon the beach (the promise of many descendants).
