SECOND LESSON (Genesis 22:15-18)
God promises to faithful Abraham that his descendants
will be a blessing to all the nations of the earth.
The angel of the Lord called from heaven to Abraham a second time,
"I will make a vow with you, yes, by my own name, that I will richly bless you.
Because you have done this, and have not withheld your son, your only son,
I promise that I will give you as many descendants as there are stars in the sky,
or grains of sand along the seashore.
Your descendants will rule over their enemies.
Because you have obeyed my voice, your descendants will be a blessing to all
the nations of the earth."
Thanks be to God.
