ABRAHAM AND THE EARLY LEADERS OF ISRAEL 7 TH GRADE RELIGION

ABRAHAM (GENESIS 12:1-8)GENESIS 12:1-8 Despite humanity’s sin, God chose to stay in relationship with humanity and chose a group of people to call his own, namely the Hebrew people. They would later be called the Israelites. God called Abram (later renamed Abraham). Abram and his wife, Sarai, were Semitic nomads wandering the highlands of the Near East. © houseandhome.org

ABRAHAM Abram takes Sarai, his nephew Lot, and all of their possessions and leaves for Canaan, not knowing where God is leading them. Image in public domain

THE PROMISE OF ABRAM

ABRAHAM (GEN 17:3-7)GEN 17:3-7 When Abram is ninety-nine years old, God again speaks with him and establishes his Covenant with Abram and his descendants. Sarai becomes known as Sarah, and Abram becomes known as Abraham. Sarah bears Abraham a son, named Isaac. Through Abraham God chooses to make his Covenant, through which he forms his people. Through this Covenant God later reveals his Law to his people through Moses.

ABRAHAM God’s command that Abraham sacrifice his only son, Isaac, tests Abraham’s faith. Because of his faithfulness and complete trust in God, Abraham and Sarah are blessed with countless descendants. Image in public domain

PATRIARCHS AND HOLY WOMEN What is a patriarch?  The father and spiritual leader of a tribe, clan, or tradition. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were the patriarchs of the Israelite people. What is a matriarch?  Matriarchs are sometimes called holy women. A matriarch is the original mother of a group, who would form a “house.” The term often refers to the wives of the patriarchs because they, as well as their spouses, contributed to the building of the nation of Israel.

ISAAC AND JACOB Isaac was the son of Abraham and Sarah. His father almost sacrificed him, but at the last minute, God saved him. Abraham’s servants found Isaac a wife, Rebekah, from among Abraham’s people. Isaac and Rebekah had twin sons, Jacob and Esau. Esau was born first, but Jacob ended up getting his brother’s birthright and their father’s blessing. Through a dream, God renewed his Covenant with Jacob. Image in public domain

GEN 32:25 And Jacob was left alone…

GEN 32:25B And a man wrestled with him…

GEN 32:25C …until the rise of dawn.

GEN 32:2526 Until the break of dawn. When the man saw that he could not prevail over him, he struck Jacob’s hip at its socket, so that Jacob’s socket was dislocated as he wrestled with him.

GEN 32:27 The man said, 'Let me go, for day is breaking.'

GEN 32:27B But Jacob said, “I will not let you go until you bless me.”

GEN 32:28 “What is your name?” the man asked. He answered, “Jacob.”

GEN 32:29 Then the man said, “You shall no longer be named Jacob, but Israel, * because you have contended with divine and human beings and have prevailed.” *

JACOB’S NEW NAME After renewing Abraham’s covenant, his new name is ISRAEL.

QUALITIES OF THE PATRIARCHS They obeyed God. They knew God wanted his people to treat all people with justice. They lived good, moral lives. They understood that God wanted his People to come back to him with their whole selves. Image in public domain
