1998. Verse 3 And Abram fell on his face, 1 and God spoke to him, saying,

'Abram fell on his face' 1 means adoration. 'And God spoke to him, saying' means a degree of perception, the name 'God' being used because God Shaddai whom Abram worshipped represents the Lord, and also because truth that was to be united to good is the subject.
