Bible Text to Study by February 25h

Genesis 15

Study Questions

1. Why is it so important to communicate that an heir will come from Abram’s “own body”?

2. What does it mean that Abram believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness (15:6)? Take some time to read through Galatians 3.

3. What is the significance of having animals involved in the sacrifice? Why are sacrifices needed at all to ratify a covenant with God? Think through other passages in Scripture that might help with this understanding.

4. Why does terror and great darkness fall upon Abram in 15:12?

5. Why does God talk about what will happen to Abram’s descendants (15:13-14)? Which parts of the covenant of land, nation, and blessing are affected? Why do you think this will happen?

6. Who passed through the animal pieces (15:17)? Who didn’t? Why does this matter?
