7
принеси мнј дичи, и приготовь мнј похлебку; я појмъ, и благословлю тебя предъ лицемъ Іеговы, предъ смертію моею.
Бытие 27:7
314 - Father Abraham
By Jonathan S. Rose
Title: Father Abraham
Topic: The Word
Summary: The true, spiritual meaning why many people in the Old and New Testaments are said to refer to Abraham as their father is that both "Abraham" and "father" mean love. A state of love is the "land of Abraham" that has been promised to us all, if we want it.

Genesis 17:1-5
1
When Abram was ninety-nine years old, Yahweh appeared to Abram, and said to him, "I am God Almighty. Walk before me, and be blameless.
2
I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly."
3
Abram fell on his face. God talked with him, saying,
4
"As for me, behold, my covenant is with you. You will be the father of a multitude of nations.
5
Neither will your name any more be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.
