Commentary by Douglas Tilstra :
"When God declares Himself the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (Exodus 3:6; Matthew 22:32; Acts 3:13) He declares Himself the God of struggling people and troubled families who are saved and healed by His grace. The story of Genesis is really one long family story, specifically focused on the first four generations of the nation of Israel, and the man and woman who lead each of those generations. Those men and women are Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebecca, Jacob,Rachel and Leah, and Joseph and Asenath. We often consider them as Scriptural heroes and giants of faith. Indeed their stories are briefly mentioned in Hebrews 11 as examples of faith. However, like us, their lives were also deeply scarred by their own sins and the sins of others against them. The story of God’s family as told in Genesis reveals a family marked by drunkenness, deceit, murder, adultery, incest, cowardice, jealousy, hatred, betrayal, contempt between husbands and wives, and outright disbelief of God. Truly, it is a story of struggling people and troubled families. Yet it is the story of God who saves and heals struggling people and troubled families. It is the story of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob."
