Publisher's Synopsis
This monograph discusses the Abrahamic Covenantal Promise that God made with him to bless all families of Planet Earth. From the history of humankind to the specific history of the patriarchs the Promise is explored in depth throughout the pages of the bible. In an easy-to-read style, Dr. Adderley, a retired Professor of Religion, engages the reader and prompts readers throughout to read the Scripture, especially those who may be doing so for the first time. The book really takes off when it is shown that God did not promise that "Jews" would be His only Chosen People; and, in addition that the Promise to Abraham about the Land, was not the Land of Palestine, but that he should inherit the world. This book is a must read for all adherents of religious faith - Muslims, Buddhists, Sikhs, Hindus, Jains, Jews and Christians -who will see themselves in the promise of one great "Gentile" nation - a great Ghoy - which includes all ethnicities of the planet.
