                               o Abram said to
                               Lot, “Let’s not

                      whole land before you?
                      Let’s part company. If you
                      go to the left, I’ll go to
                      the right; if you go to the

                      Lot prospered anew

                      soon began to compete
                      instead of sharing the
                      land. As a noble man,
                      Abram         offered      his
                      kinsman the first choice
                      of the lands, promising
                      to move in order to keep                     at a lot and grasped only a little. Abram

                      asked Lot, “Is not the whole land before     nothing when they enter a new land can

                      space, enough water, enough fodder for       a lot, grasping little. Or they can trust
