What is the Real History of Mecca?
The promised son – Isaac – has still not been born yet. God tells Abraham in Genesis 17 that He will surely bless Ishmael because he came from Abraham’s loins. But in verse 21, God clearly says, “But my covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you by this time next year.” There is no mention of Ishmael as being part of this covenant, even though we soon read that Abraham circumcises all the males in his household. This not only included Ishmael, but all male servants that Abraham bought with his own money as well as any other male born into Abraham’s household. By the way, we will talk more about circumcision in another article soon.
