Have you ever read the story of Abraham and wondered about how everyone was related? I made a chart a few years ago and figured I would share it with you all.
We know that Abraham and Sarah were half-brother and sister. They were married and had Isaac, who married the daughter of his cousin. They then had two sons, Jacob and Esau. Jacob married two sisters, Rachel and Leah, who were his cousins, both first and second degree. There's also the strange story of Lot and his two daughters who bore children through him.
AND YET, God decided that this man and his family would receive the promise which made his descendants God's special people! Isn't it interesting how the Lord works?
