(“abraham” (/ˈeɪbrəˌhæm, -həm/ (Hebrew: אַבְרָהָם, listen), originally abram, is the first of the 3 ‘biblical patriarchs’)
.
(his story, told in chapters 11 through 25 of the ‘Book of Genesis’, plays a prominent role as an example of faith in ‘Judaism’, ‘Christianity’, and ‘Islam’)
(the narrative revolves around the themes of ‘posterity’ and ‘land’)
(‘abraham’ is called by ‘God’ to leave the house of his father ‘Terah’ and settle in the land originally given to ‘Canaan’, but which ‘God’ now promises to ‘Abraham’ and his progeny)
(various candidates are put forward who might inherit the land after ‘Abraham’, but all are dismissed except for ‘Isaac’, his son by his half-sister ‘Sarah’)
(‘Abraham’ purchases a tomb ( the ‘Cave of the Patriarchs’) at ‘Hebron’ to be Sarah’s grave, thus establishing his right to the land, and in the second generation his heir ‘Isaac’ is married to a woman from his own kin, thus ruling the Canaanites out of any inheritance)
(‘Abraham’ later marries ‘Keturah’ and has 6 more sons, but on his death, when he is buried beside ‘Sarah’, it is ‘Isaac’ who receives “all Abraham’s goods”, while the other sons receive only “gifts”)
(the ‘Abraham’ story cannot be definitively related to any specific time, and scholars are generally agreed that the so-called ‘patriarchal/ancestral period’ is a fictional construct)
(it appears to have been composed in the early persian period (late 6th century BCE) as a result of tensions between ‘jewish landowners’ who had stayed in ‘judah’ during the ‘babylonian captivity’ and traced their right to the land through their “father abraham”, and the returning exiles who based their counter-claim on ‘moses’ and the ‘exodus tradition’)
(the proto “israeli-palestinian conflict”)
