This type of text is very important for us as we grow in our faith- it does not give us commands to obey or principles to live by, but it shows us the scale and scope of God's purposes across history. The Abrahamic blessing enjoyed only by Abraham's true children is received by faith in the Abrahamic Seed, Christ, who removed the curse of the Law by His death on the cross.
