One of them is to kill abrams son
God chose Abram because he saw that Abram had faith and would follow Him faithfully.
(I assume you mean events) Judaism began when God made a covenant with Abram. The provisions of this covenant were: ~Abram's name was changed to Abraham ~God would give him a son ~God would give him Canaan ~Abraham and all his family needed to be circumcised Read about it in Genesis 17.
God gave Abram the Land. This was the first covenant. The second was circumcision. Sorry for the mistake, esp, with God`s word.
You can find it in the book of Genesis. (Gen. 11) God calls upon Abram because he obeys God and will become one of God's favorite people. God tells Abram to do something, and he will do it. He almost sacrifices his own son! Later, God changes Abram's name to Abraham.

God changed Abram's name to Abraham and Sarai's name to Sarah as a sign of their new identities and the covenant He made with them. It symbolized their transformation and the promises God had for them.
Abram
According to tradition, the young Abram first thought of the existence of One God at the age of three years old, in 1809 BCE.
A firepot and a torch passed between Abram's sacrifices after he had questioned God about His promises because by passing between the halves of the sacrifices, God was swearing a covenant oath with Abram, solemnly promising that the land would be his.

God was speaking to Abram, who God later named Abraham, in Genesis 17:8 (NKJV) Also I give to you and your descendants after you the land in which you are a stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession; and I will be their God."
God chose Abram to be the father of a great nation because of his faith and obedience. Abram demonstrated unwavering trust in God and followed His commands, making him a suitable candidate to establish a nation that would be blessed and serve as a beacon of faith for others.
