Авраам — первый из трех великих библейских патриархов после Потопа, родоначальник многих народов. Его вера была столь глубока, что он готов был принести в жертву собственного сына. Увидев подобное самоотречение, Господь благословил Авраама, пообещав сделать его потомству многие блага на земле. В этом эпическом произведении о жизни великого пророка рассказывается о великом переселении его народа, происшедшего по велению Господа, явившегося Аврааму и призвавшего его. Путь Авраама пролегал через земли Ханаана и Египта и был полон тяжких испытаний, но Господь всякий раз указывал ему дорогу, защищая от врагов и укрепляя веру.
