SCRIPTURE READINGS
GENESIS 15:1-18
THE MESSAGE (MSG)
God establishes a covenant with Abram to make
him a "father of many nations."
The Hebrew phrase for "making a covenant" is
"berith kathav" - literally, "I cut a covenant."
Cutting a covenant generally involved the literal
"cutting" of one or more animals and passing
between the cut animal pieces as a sign that
should the promises made be violated, the
same fate would befall the one who defaults.
