Genesis 24 - Abraham Changed, Unchanged

In this brief overview of Abraham, Abimelech, Isaac and Ishmael, we discuss an application of a 'black swan' event and how God used these events to show how human Abraham really was. He had not really changed though he was a man of faith, he still was a man of flesh also - just like we are also. These events form the only true allegory in the Bible. Understanding the allegory requires us to understand the truth of the underlying events or we arrive at an incorrect conclusion.
