Summary/Abstract: Abraham’s faith was based on the close and personal relationship with God. The Bible describes it especially in the scenes of God’s revelation to the patriarch. During this events God gives him orders or promises. These two dimensions are often linked and follow one another. Abraham’s deeds are his response to God’s words. It is worth mentioning that Abraham does not act without a reflection but he asks questions, enters into dialogue with God and has the courage to express his own doubts.
