You shall be the father of a multitude of nations. . . . I will make nations of you, and kings shall come forth from you. And I will establish my covenant between me and you and your descendants after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your descendants after you. And I will give to you, and to your descendants after you, the land of your sojournings [short stay], all the land of Canaan. According to the Hebrew Bible, who was the recipient of this promise?

Answer:

Abraham

Step-by-step explanation:

Abraham is the first of the three patriarchs of Judaism. His story is told in all the sacred texts of the Abrahamic religions and plays an important role as an example of faith in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

A recurring feature of Abraham's story is the covenants between him and God, which are repeated and reaffirmed several times. When Abraham is told to leave the city of Ur Casdim, the Lord promises "I will make you a great people."

After separating from Lot, God appears and promises to give him and his offspring "All the earth you see" and that would multiply its posterity "like the dust of the earth." After the battle in the valley of Sidim, the Lord appears and confirms the promise. Later, it is prophesied that "your descendants will dwell as foreigners in a strange land, in which they will be slaves and will be oppressed for four hundred years." Abraham makes a sacrifice and accepts the covenant.
