Neither shall thy name anymore be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.
The name Abram signifies a great Father: and Abraham, the Father of a multitude. It is pleasing to observe, that the Gospel Church when married to the Bridegroom hath her name changed: See Isaiah 62:2-4. And is not every individual believer the same? See Revelation 2:17.
