A proposito di questo titolo
Welcome to Day 5 of Word for Word: The Bible.
In today’s episode, we read Genesis chapters 14–16 word for word from the New International Version (NIV). These chapters continue the story of Abram and reveal how God’s promises unfold amid conflict, waiting, and human weakness.
Today’s reading includes:
- Abram rescuing Lot after the battle of the kings
- Abram’s encounter with Melchizedek, priest of God Most High
- God reaffirming His covenant promise to Abram
- The promise of descendants as numerous as the stars
- Sarai and Hagar, and the birth of Ishmael
- The tension created when God’s timing is tested by human impatience
Genesis 14–16 shows Abram acting in faith and courage, while also wrestling with uncertainty and delay. God’s covenant remains firm, even when people attempt to take matters into their own hands. These chapters remind us that God’s promises do not depend on human perfection, but on His faithfulness.
Each episode of Word for Word: The Bible includes:
- A brief prayer for understanding
- A complete Scripture reading
- A short reflection to frame the passage in context
Whether you are reading the Bible for the first time or following along in a year-long journey, you are invited to listen daily as we move through Scripture together—word for word.
