Show Answer Key & Explanations
Step-by-step solution for: Abraham online exercise for 4
Let’s go through each question one by one, using what we know from the Bible story of Abraham.
---
1. What was the promise that God made to Abram?
God promised Abram that he would become the father of a great nation — even though Abram had no children at the time. God also said He would give him land and bless all people through his family.
✔ Final Answer:
God promised Abram that he would have many descendants (children, grandchildren, etc.) and become the father of a great nation, and that God would give him land and bless everyone through his family.
---
2. What did God show to Abram to tell him how many children he would have?
One night, God took Abram outside and told him to look up at the sky and count the stars — if he could! God said, “So shall your offspring be.” That meant Abram’s descendants would be as countless as the stars.
✔ Final Answer:
God showed Abram the stars in the sky and said his children would be as numerous as the stars.
---
3. What happen to Abram when he was ninety-nine years old?
When Abram was 99, God appeared to him again, changed his name to Abraham, and renewed His promise — saying Sarah (his wife) would have a son, even though she was very old too.
✔ Final Answer:
When Abram was ninety-nine, God changed his name to Abraham and told him that Sarah would have a son.

4. Use the numbers 1 – 4 to put the events in the correct order.
Let’s think about the order these things happened:
- First, God told Abraham and Sarah they would have a son → this made Abraham laugh and fall on his face.
- Then, God changed Sarai’s name to Sarah.
- Then, God changed Abram’s name to Abraham.
Wait — actually, let’s check the Bible order (Genesis 17):
In Genesis 17:
1. God appears to Abram at age 99.
2. God changes Abram’s name to Abraham.
3. God changes Sarai’s name to Sarah.
4. God tells them they will have a son → Abraham laughs and falls on his face.
But wait — some versions say the laughing happens right after hearing about the baby. Let’s match the sentences given:
The four lines are:
______ God told Sarah and Abraham they will have a son.
______ God changed Sarai’s name to Sarah.
______ God change Abram's name to Abraham
______ Abraham laughed and fell on his face.
Actually, in Genesis 17:15–17:
- God says: “I will change her name to Sarah” → then “I will bless her and give you a son by her” → then “Abraham fell facedown; he laughed…”
And earlier in verse 5: “Your name will no longer be Abram… it will be Abraham.”
So the correct order is:
1. God changed Abram’s name to Abraham
2. God changed Sarai’s name to Sarah
3. God told them they will have a son
4. Abraham laughed and fell on his face
✔ Final Answer:
1 — God changed Abram's name to Abraham
2 — God changed Sarai’s name to Sarah
3 — God told Sarah and Abraham they will have a son
4 — Abraham laughed and fell on his face
*(Note: Some might argue the laughing comes right after hearing about the son — which it does — so #3 and #4 are linked. But since they’re separate lines, we list them in sequence.)*
---
5. Complete the cause and effect. [1]
Effect: Abraham and Sarah realized that the man who had told them this was indeed God.
What caused that? In Genesis 18, three visitors came to Abraham. One of them said Sarah would have a baby next year. Sarah laughed inside because she was old. The visitor (who was God or an angel representing God) knew she laughed — even though she didn’t say it out loud. That’s when they realized it was God.
✔ Final Answer:
Cause: The visitor knew Sarah had laughed inside herself, even though she hadn’t spoken aloud.
---
6a. What was the name of Abraham and Sarah’s son?
Their son was named Isaac.
✔ Final Answer:
Isaac
---
6b. What is the meaning of his name?
“Isaac” means “he laughs” or “laughter” — because both Abraham and Sarah laughed when they heard they’d have a baby in their old age.
✔ Final Answer:
It means “he laughs” or “laughter,” because Abraham and Sarah laughed when they heard they would have a son in their old age.
