Genesis 15
15:2
And Abram said,
a Lord GOD, what wilt
thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house [is] this
Eliezer of Damascus?
(
a) His fear was not only lest he should not have
children, but lest the promise of the blessed seed should not be accomplished
in him.
15:8
And he said, Lord GOD,
b whereby shall I
know that I shall inherit it?
(
b) This is a particular motion of God's
Spirit, which is not lawful for all to follow, in asking signs: but was
permitted for some by a peculiar motion, as to Gideon and Ezekiel.
15:10 And he took unto him all
these, and
c divided them in the midst,
and laid each piece one against another: but the birds divided he not.
(
c) This was the old custom in making covenants,
(
Jeremiah
39:18), to which God added these conditions, that Abram's posterity
would be as torn in pieces, but after they would be rejoined: also that it
would be assaulted, but yet delivered.
15:13
And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a
land [that is] not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them
d
four hundred years;
(
d) Counting from the birth of Isaac to their
departure of Egypt: Which declares that God will allow his to be afflicted in
this world.
15:16
But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the
e
iniquity of the Amorites [is] not yet full.
(
e) Though God tolerates the wicked for a time,
yet his vengeance falls on them when the measure of their wickedness is full.
