1
After the destruction of the cities of the plains, I, Abraham, journeyed to the south to the land of Gerar.
2
Now the king of the land of Gerar was Abimelech, and he was one who worshiped the Most High God and he was just and upright in all his ways.
3
And Abimelech had entered the holy order of God and was a priest and a king after the order of the Most High God and had received the rites and ordinances of the gospel.
4
As a youth he had dwelt with me in the city of Shalom and he was as a brother unto me and we shared all things.
5
When Sarah and I went in unto Abimelech to commune with him, the Spirit of the Lord fell upon Abimelech and he blessed Sarah in great outpourings after the order of the ancients and anointed her that she might bear holy seed and we rejoiced in the blessings of the Lord unto Sarah through the three holy men from the City of Enoch and through his servant Abimelech.
6
And the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me also and I blessed her and anointed her that the Spirit of the Lord might fall upon her in a greater outpouring to the sanctification of herself and her seed.
7
And we rejoiced together for three nights and two days and worshiped the Lord our God and were filled with joy and peace in the blessings of the Lord unto us.
8
And we were magnified in the Lord.
