Genesis 12:1-10 "The Call of Abram"

In Genesis 12, a major shift happens from "Primeval History" to "Patriarchal History." Abram's call and God's covenant with Abram is first announced. Abram is led by God to Canaan, and he stands as one who believed God and was therefore declared righteous, even despite his shortcomings of partial and delayed obedience, which only highlights the gracious and patient God we serve.
