Genesis 17 - A New Name

Genesis 17:1-5
When Abram was 99 years old God spoke to him and changed his name to Abraham.

Why did God change Abram’s name to Abraham? (verse 5)




Genesis 17:6-14
God, once again, promises to make Abraham the father of many descendants, and establishes the covenant of circumcision.

Who did God say was to be circumcised?


Genesis 17:15-22
God changed Sarai’s name to Sarah, and promised that she would give Abraham a son in one year, and be blessed by God.

What was Abraham’s reaction to the idea of Sarah giving birth? (verse 17)






What did Abraham suggest to God concerning Ishmael? 



What did God promise Abraham concerning Ishmael, even though his covenant would be with Sarah’s son, Isaac?
