Detailed explanation-1: -When Abram was 99 years old, the Torah says, God spoke to him again: “I will make a covenant between myself and you.” God promised to favor and protect Abram’s descendants, meaning his children and the generations that would follow. In return, Abram agreed that he and his people would always devote themselves to God.
Detailed explanation-2: -When Abraham arrived in Israel, God made him a promise. He said, “ I will give you this land for your descendants. I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you. I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky.”
Detailed explanation-3: -Abraham made covenants with God when he received the gospel, when he was ordained a high priest, and when he entered into celestial marriage. In these covenants, God promised great blessings to Abraham and his family. These blessings, which extend to all of Abraham’s seed, are called the Abrahamic covenant.
Detailed explanation-4: -God made four promises to Abraham-(1) land, (2) numerous descendants, (3) blessing for him and his descendants, and (4) blessing through him for all nations. The patriarchs (Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph) were not always very good at blessing other nations.
