by Tom Brennan, The story of Abraham, Sarah and the people who would be as numerous as the stars is amazing for its conflicts with what we consider the “normal”. Abraham was not a Canaanite; he was from northern Iraq, Ur. He was born a pagan, a worshipper of idols. Abraham was descended from Shem one of Noah’s three sons. From the time after Noah the world slipped back into idolatry and G-d called Noah apart to make a new covenant to go with that which He had made with Noah.
