By God’s grace, after some pretty embarrassing failures to trust God, Abram comes back to the Land God gave him. Lot, Abram’s nephew, had accompanied him to Egypt and has now followed him out. We see in verse 2 that Abram is a man of great wealth helped along no doubt by Pharaoh’s largesse which was prompted, ironically, by the lie that Abram had told. As he returned to the Land he eventually arrived at Bethel where he had started, signaling that he had returned to the life of faith in which he had begun his sojourn in Canaan.
