The Patriarchs: An Exposition of Genesis 12-36

The Patriarchs: An Exposition of Genesis 12-36

The middle section of the book of Genesis is often called the Patriarchal period. Here we learn about God’s promise to set a people apart for himself. This all begins with Abram and Sarai who are chosen by God to father a nation. Their story and the story of their children helps us understand God’s redemptive work from this point forward. It is so vital to study Genesis 12-36 that Dr. James Montgomery Boice states, “No one can understand the Old Testament without understanding Abram, for in many ways the history of redemption begins with God’s call to him.” Join us as we unpack Genesis 12-36 and learn about that very redemptive work which is explained through Abraham and fulfilled in Christ.
