This guy Abraham is a bit messed up. There is a huge deal made about the faith of this guy and yet he has a serious faith problems when it comes to his wife.
Cut off a portion of your junk: check.
Be willing to kill your son: check
Live in hostile countries: check
Trust that the local king won’t kill you and steal your wife: FAIL… twice.
C’mon, Abe! Remember God promising to make you a great nation through Sarah? There was that whole cauldron thing with the bisected animals? No? Can’t remember that? You circumcised yourself! I know you remember that. If not, there are like 350 dudes in your household that would be glad to. But somehow, every time you come to a new land, the first thing you do is get rid of Sarah!?! Wow. Nothing says, “I love my wife,” like giving her away… twice.
Abraham, great man of faith… yeah, I don’t get this one.
