The next article of Bible study in Genesis was just released, and discusses Bible history from Noah to Abraham, and the first hint of the ultimate riddle of the Bible. God spoke with Abram with promises of blessing, and later renamed him Abraham from Abram, and his wife Sarah was renamed from Sarai.

These blessings were for all generations of Abram's seed which included his firstborn, Ishmael, born by his wife's handmaid, Hagar. His wife, Sarai had given her handmaid to Abram to raise up an heir because she was thought barren due to advanced age. She later conceived as promised by God, and the same blessings applied to the royal seed which was his son Isaac, from whom would come the Messiah, Jesus Christ.

This article from Genesis in the Old Testament documents the first hint of the ultimate riddle of the Bible, and reveals the full mystery looking ahead at the New Testament.
