1. When God makes his covenant with Abram in Genesis 12,Abram is 75 years old and Sarai is 65. Chapter 15 opens tenyears later. Since the covenant involves bothprogenyand
property, is it reasonable for Abram to doubt Gods promise?Would you?
2. When God reaffirms his covenant with Abram in chapter 15,Abram believes God, who credits that belief to him asrighteousness. Why would Abram believe God at this pointin the story?
3. Why would Sarai offer Hagar as a surrogate?
4. After Hagar becomes pregnant, why would Sarai then berateAbram?
5. Why would God choose circumcisionof all thingsas the
sign of his covenant with Abram?
