• Day Eleven: Deliverance

  God wanted a people of his own through whom he would bless the earth and provide a remedy for humankind’s separation from him.

• Day Ten: Maybe

  In God’s overarching plan to fulfill his promises, he used the 11th son of Jacob to first save and then enslave his people.

• Day Nine: Sister Wives

  God planned to transform a chosen person, Abraham, into a chosen people. This would be the great nation that would experience the fulfillment of God’s promises. After a slow start, the nation building really got going by means of a birthing war between two sister wives.
