Transcription: A large family, a nation, a land. God had promised all these to Abraham and to Isaac and to Jacob. As Genesis closes, only the first of the promises has come true. Jacob's twelve sons have produced a flock of children. The Bible makes plain that these twelve were no more holy than any other sons. Eleven of them after all had betrayed Joseph. But from this starting point, God would build his nation.
