Abraham left his country, Ur of the Chaldeans, when he was called by God to go to a land that would be shown to him, which is described in the book of Genesis. This journey occurred after the death of Abraham's father, Terach, and is generally believed to have taken place around 2000 BCE. Abraham took his nephew Lot with him as they set out towards Canaan. This event marks a significant moment in the biblical narrative, highlighting Abraham's faith and obedience.

Did Abraham disobey God by taking Lot with him?

Abraham's decision to take Lot with him when leaving Haran can be viewed as a form of disobedience, as God specifically instructed Abraham to leave his country and his father's household. However, the narrative does not explicitly label this action as sinful; it may reflect Abraham's human tendency to cling to family. Ultimately, Lot's presence led to challenges in Abraham's journey, highlighting the complexities of faith and obedience in the biblical narrative.

What does Abrahams journey symbolize for us?

Abraham's journey (Genesis ch.12) hints that every person can become great, can become a leader, can become holy, and can follow his/her instinct to sense God's calling. Not everyone must leave their country of birth as Abraham had to, but everyone must leave their childishness and their spiritual torpor.
