The Abrahamic Covenant is one of the most important covenants in Scripture — arguably the foundation of redemptive history. In Genesis 12:1-3, God called Abram: "Get out of your country, from your family and from your father's house, to a land that I will show you. I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed." This covenant has three great promises: (1) Land — Canaan, "from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates" (Genesis 15:18); (2) Seed — descendants as numerous as the stars and sand (Genesis 15:5, 22:17); (3) Blessing — not just for Abraham's family but through them for "all the families of the earth." The covenant was unilateral — in Genesis 15, God put Abraham into a deep sleep and passed between the cut animals Himself, signifying that He alone bore the obligation. The Abrahamic Covenant is fulfilled in Christ: He is the true Seed through whom all nations are blessed (Galatians 3:16). Every Christian is "Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise" (Galatians 3:29).
