So Pharaoh gave orders concerning him to his men, and they sent him on his way with his wife and everything he had.
"Lekh Lekha" --"Go for yourself". Rashi comments: "For your benefit." "suit yourself" In the last of the ten tests Hashem again commands "And go for yourself to the land of Moriah." Hashem's message to Abraham is that He has no doubts as to the outcome of the trial. The trial is needed for the benefit of the human being. From this Chapter Avraham was first to be call Hebrew the cross over one. Abraham in Egypt foreshadows the slavery of the Jews.
1. His call by Hashem in Aram Naharayim (Acts7:2, 3).
2. His journey to Haran, then to Kenaan (Acts 7: 4).
3. Hashem's promise of the land to Avraham, though the patriarch himself was not given any of it—as was proved by his purchase of the cave of Machpelah as a burial place (v. 5). The fulfillment of that promise is still future (Hebrews 11:13-40).
4. Hashem's prediction of Yisrael's bondage in Mitzrayim and of eventual deliverance (vv. 6, 7). Both parts of this prediction were accomplished by men who had been rejected by the nation: Yosef (vv. 9-19); Moshe (vv. 20-36). The four hundred years mentioned in verse 6 and in Beresheet 15:13 refer to the time when the Jewish people were afflicted in Mitzrayim. The four hundred and thirty years cited in Shemot 12:40 and Galates 3:17 cover the period from the arrival of Ya'akov and his family in Mitzrayim to the Exodus and the giving of the Torah. The Yisraelites were not persecuted during their first thirty years in Mitzrayim; in fact, they were treated quite royally.
Even ye Avraham believed Elohim, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Avraham. and the Scripture foreseeing that Elohim would justify the goyim through faith, proclaimed the goodnews unto Avraham saying "In thee all nations be blessed" So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Avraham Galatians 3:6-8
Yochanan 8:56 Your father Avraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad."
Act 7:2 And he said, "Brethren and fathers, listen: The Elohim of glory appeared to our father Avraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Haran,
Act 7:5 And Elohim gave him no inheritance in it, not even enough to set his foot on. But even when Avraham had no child, He promised to give it to him for a possession, and to his descendants after him.
Romaios 4:1 What then shall we say that Avraham our father has found according to the flesh?
Romaios 4:2 For if Avraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before Elohim.
Romaios 4:9 Does this blessedness then come upon the circumcised only, or upon the uncircumcised also? For we say that faith was accounted to Avraham for righteousness.
Romaios 4:12 and the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of the faith which our father Avraham had while still uncircumcised.
Romaios4:16 Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the seed, not only to those who are of the Torah, but also to those who are of the faith of Avraham, who is the father of us all
Galates 3:7 Therefore know that only those who are of faith are benai Avraham.
Galates 3:8 And the Scripture, foreseeing that Elohim would justify the Goyim (Ger Toshav) by faith, proclaimed the good news to Avraham beforehand, saying, "In you all the nations shall be blessed."
Galates 3:9 So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Avraham.
Galates 3:14 that the blessing of Avraham might come upon the Goyim (Ger Toshav) in Mashiach Yeshua, that we might receive the promise of the Ruach through faith.
Galates 3:29 And if you are Mashiach's, then you are Avraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Hebrews 7:1 For this Malki Tzedek melekh Shalem, kohen EL ELYON (Most High Elohim), who met Avraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,
Hebrews 7:2 to whom also Avraham gave a tenth part of all, first being translated "king of righteousness," and then also melekh Shalem, meaning "melekh Shalom,"
Hebrews 7:4 Now consider how great this man was, to whom even the patriarch Avraham gave a tenth of the spoils.
Hebrews 7:5 And indeed those who are of benai Levi, who receive kehunah (priesthood), have a commandment to receive tithes from the people according to the Torah, that is, from their brethren, though they have come from the loins of Avraham;
Hebrews 7:6 but he whose genealogy is not derived from them received tithes from Avraham and blessed him who had the promises.
Hebrews 7:9 Even Levi, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Avraham, so to speak,
Heb 7:19 For the Torah brought nothing to shleimut (perfection); on the other hand, there is the mavo (introduction) of a tikvah tovah yoter (a better hope) through which we draw near to Hashem.
Hebrews 11:8 By faith Avraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.
Hebrews 11:17 By faith Avraham, when he was tested, offered up Yitzchak, and he who had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,
Yaakov 2:21 Was not Avraham our father justified by works when he offered Yitzchak his son on the altar?
Yaakov 2:23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "AVRAHAM BELIEVED ELOHIM, AND IT WAS ACCOUNTED TO HIM FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS." And he was called the friend of Elohim.
