Introduction to Study 12

Study 12 - God's Special Plan

About 1900 bc God chose a man named Abram (later renamed Abraham) to become the father of a nation for whom He planned a special destiny. God made a covenant with Abraham in which He promised that, through his descendants, al nations would be blessed. God confirmed this covenant to Abraham’s son Isaac and to his grandson Jacob (whose name He changed to Israel).

Four hundred and thirty years later, through Moses, God made a further covenant with Jacob’s descendants, the nation of Israel, in which He gave them a complete set of laws and a ful er picture of their destiny. Later, God sent prophets to Israel who predicted how their destiny would be worked out.
