What is Abraham, Blessing and the Nations (A Philological and Exegetical Study of Genesis 12:3 in its Narrative Context) about?
<html> <head> <meta name="generator" content="microsoft dhtml editing control"> <title></title> </head> <body> <p>This monograph investigates Genesis 12:3 in its context in the final form of Genesis. The author argues that the verse is, first, a promise of security and greatness to Abraham and Israel. However, its position following Genesis 1-11 also indicates a divine plan to extend blessing to all the peoples of the earth. Supporting this understanding of the verse, the author examines the close parallels that Genesis and Numbers 24:9 have to Genesis 12:3. He also presents a detailed consideration of the concept of blessing in the Old Testament and of the niphal and hithpael stems of the verb barak.</p> <p>Ph.D. dissertation under the supervision of Dr R.
