Abraham is one of the most blessed people in the Bible. Although Scripture is not a comprehensive history of humans it does, however, chronicle the relationship of one man and his descendants with the Creator of the Universe. Ultimately, it is a record of how God has and will bless mankind through the life of the next person in our timeline.
How many children were in Abraham's family tree? Through which wife of Jacob does Jesus trace his lineage?
Abraham, at an unknown time after Sarah's death, decides to marry again. He takes as his wife Keturah, who produces sons named Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah (Genesis 25).
Abraham and Keturah's descendants, through their son Midian, would play an active and usually negative role in the early history of Israel. It was through traveling Midianite merchants that Jacob's (Israel's) sons sold their youngest brother Joseph into slavery (Genesis 37:28). Zipporah, Moses' wife, was a Midianite (Exodus 2:15 - 21).

Abraham's descendants are promised blessings, Sodom and Gomorrah destroyed and Lot's wife turned into salt. Abraham is told by God to sacrifice his only son Isaac and Jacob becomes father of the twelve tribes of Israel.
When did God first call Abraham (Abram)? When did he and Sarah leave for the land of Canaan? What was the deception the couple promulgated during their journeys?
Who was Abraham's OTHER wife? What was his relationship with Sarah and Hagar, the first two women in his life? How did one of his descendants through this rarely mentioned other wife adversely affect the nation of Israel?
At what age was Isaac when Abraham was commanded to sacrifice him to God? Could he have been a teenager or even a young man?
