Sarai can't wait on God's plan for a son, so she devises a plan for Abram to have a son through her servant/slave, Hagar. The plan works perfectly, except Sarai isn't happy because now Hagar is treating her badly. The situation unravels further and Hagar runs away. But God has bigger plans. He meets her in the wilderness and delivers a strong message.

This chapter is the detailed covenant between God and Abram. Abram had received a promise from God. But years have passed, some mistakes have been made, some victories won. God reassures Abram of the promise, but Abram's got some questions. Because he believes God, he questions him about how these things can come true when his circumstances seems impossible. So God makes a covenant with Abram. What's unique about God's covenants is that God is the only one who makes the promises. Humans just receive them.
