Chapter 24


1

When I was three years of age, the Lord visited me in a dream of the night and he said unto me, Abram.

2

And I said, Here am I.

3

And he said unto me, Abram, I am the God of thy fathers Peleg and Shem and Noah.

4

It is I who preserved thy life when the wicked king Nimrod would have destroyed thee for I softened the heart of thy father that he should hide thee away.

5

This I did for I have a mighty work for thee to do in establishing mine order upon the earth and verily I say unto thee, In the end, through thee shall this wicked Nimrod be destroyed from off the face of the earth.

6

Behold, thou shalt remain in this cave with thy mother and thy nurse for yet seven years and at the end of that time thou shalt depart and I will send mine angel to guide thee unto the city of thy Father Noah where thou shalt be instructed in the way of life.

7

And from that time forth the Lord instructed me often in dreams of the night that my mind was opened to the ways of his kingdom.
