I would like to offer you an amazing journey into the wonderful biblical world of God's extraordinary friend Abraham in order to learn more about how he was chosen by the Most High God to become the father of all of the faithful. We will not only acquaint ourselves with the famous biblical story of the righteous Abraham, but also reconstruct the events of his life to see Abraham’s personality in all of its fullness, as well as delve deeper into his relationship with God. We will do so in order to better and more accurately understand the course of his life. In addition to Abraham, we will get to know his honored wife Sarah, his nephew Lot, the mysterious king and priest Melchizedek, and a number of other biblical characters. To better prepare us for the upcoming journey, we will take not only the biblical text of the Book of Genesis, but also extracts from the works of holy fathers of the Church of Christ, as well as from the Book of Enoch and the Traditions of the Church. In addition to these sources, I had to turn to the divine revelations that our Lord God graciously deigned to offer me for the writing of this book. Allow me to remind you that Abraham was first called Abram, and his wife was known as Sarai. And so, having prayed to God, let us begin our amazing journey through the life of one of the greatest and most pious people in all of human history - Abraham.
