The Life of Abraham
Abraham is one of the most blessed people in the Bible.
Although Scripture is not a comprehensive history of humans it does, however, chronicle the relationship of one man and his descendants with the Creator of the Universe. Ultimately, it is a record of how God has and will bless mankind through the life of the next person in our timeline.
The apostle Paul not only confirms that the world is blessed through Abraham's faithful life but also that anyone who has faith in God is considered one of his spiritual sons and heir of the promises.
Because of this, you should understand that those who are of faith are the true sons of Abraham.
Now in the Scriptures, God, seeing in advance that He would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, "In you shall all the nations be blessed." It is for this reason that those who are of faith are being blessed with the believing Abraham.
(Galatians - 9, HBFV, see also Romans ).
Abraham, without a doubt, lived a most fascinating life! Abram (his birth name before God renamed him) was born in the city of Ur of the Chaldees to a family that included older brothers Haran and Nahor.
Terah, his father, was years old at his birth. Abram, although not the firstborn in the family, is listed before his two older brothers (Genesis ) as sons of Terah. This is likely because he who would be the heir of God's promises (Genesis - 3) instead of his brothers.

All three have provided leadership or material support to armed insurgents in the Western Balkans.He then makes a startling promise to Abram. God says that he will bless those who bless him and curse those who curse him (Genesis )!
The Eternal's plan for man, through a single person, was so important that God personally promised to treat anyone the same way they treated Abram and his descendants!
In Genesis 15 God promises Abram that his wife Sarai will no longer be barren, but will bare him a child to be his heir.
Several years later, when he is 99, God again appears to him promising that he will soon have a son (Isaac) and that he will be the father of countless descendants. It is at this time that God renames Abram to Abraham (which means "father of a great multitude") and Sarai to Sarah (which means "princess of the multitude").
Isaac is born when he is and Sarah is
Years later, when Isaac is 15 years old (or a little older), God tests the faith of Abraham by commanding him to sacrifice his only son (Genesis 22). Isaac is spared when the Angel of the Lord stops his father from sacrificing him.
Abraham, the "father of the faithful," lives to see his son turn 75 and his grandson Jacob (later renamed Israel) to the age of He dies at the age of His wife Sarah, who preceded him in death at the age of , has the distinction of being the only woman in the Bible where we know her age at death.
Important events and people in the life of Abraham include his calling by God and receiving the command to migrate to Canaan.
His wife Sarai, nephew Lot and his wife, and the remaining family join him in the journey. The Eternal promises, several times, to bless him and his descendants.
After God miraculously heals Sarah's womb she gives birth to Isaac.
