En que creyó Abram: El significado de Génesis 15.6 en su contexto

The assertion of Genesis 15:6, usually translated “and he believed the Lord; and he reckoned it to him as righteousness,” has been understood as a reference to Abram’s acceptance to God’s promises that appear in the previous verses. However a careful study of the text, which has been studied also by many scholars, reveals that Abram is accepting the terms of a covenant that God is offering to him. This study proposes an analysis of this text according to its immediate context, considering different approaches that permit clarification of the actual difficulties in the context itself in order to determine the meaning and the theological themes that constitute its background.
