A:The Old Testament does not tell us this; nor does the New Testament. This should not be a problem because Bruce Feiler (Abraham) says that probably less than one per cent of the stories told about Abraham appear in the Bible. Sooner or later, someone was going to discover something about Abraham and come up with an explanation of everything that we wanted to believe. God used Abraham to help bring about His plan of the Messiah because Christianity believes it to have been so.

Answer:

It is really quite simple and available for all to read in the Bible - summarized as follows:

Genesis 26:5New King James Version (NKJV)

5 because Abraham obeyed My voice and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws."

Many other Scriptures show how Abraham 'walked with God' meaning they were friends. The Abrahamic Covenant was therefore given to him of which the Sceptre promise, given to his great-grandson, Judah, led to the Messiah.
