Answer:

A.) Abraham

Step-by-step explanation:

The recipient of this promise was the prophet Abraham. According to the Hebrew Bible, this promise is called the covenant of the pieces, and it consisted on God revealing himself to Abraham and making him a promise. The promise (or covenant) stated that Abraham's descendants would eventually inherit the Land of Israel. This was the first of many covenants between God and the Jewish people.
