the Book of Genesis – EPISODE 14 CHAPTERS 12:10-14:20

In this episode of our Genesis Bible Study, we examine Genesis 12:10 through 14:20 as Abram’s journey of faith is tested and deepened. The session highlights the prophetic meaning found in names and offers a brief review of Abram’s calling and character. We reflect on Abram’s descent into Egypt, contrasting God’s plans with human plans when fear and uncertainty arise. The episode then follows the separation of Abram and Lot, the ensuing conflict and battle, and Abram’s response rooted in trust rather than power. The session concludes with the remarkable appearance of Melchizedek, priest-king of Salem, whose blessing and offering point forward to the eternal priesthood of Christ.
