It comes from the conversation between God and Abram - regarding his offspring, at a time when Abram was elderly and childless.
convenant
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.

The name Abram was changed to Abraham by God in the Bible. Abram means "exalted father" in Hebrew, while Abraham means "father of a multitude" or "father of many nations." Abraham is the name by which he is most commonly known in biblical stories.
