Abraham is not a god and Jews do not recognize him as a god. However he is considered a patriarch or father in the respect that he was the father of Isaac and through his seed came Jesus. One popular Bible scripture for Abraham is: James 2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled that says, "Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness," and he was called God's friend.
