Abram (Abraham) is drawn from Ur to new land of Canaan

CHAPTER 10

At last, after half a millenia of further struggle, a glimmer of hope arrived when the Most High summoned Michael and Gabriel, and the two members, so far of the elders council, Enoch and Noah to the royal audience chamber, to debate the future course of devine policy.
"Come in, all of you. Come sit down, the Most High beckoned them politely but excitedly.
I think we may have the man, we have been seeking all these years, and the possible venue too.
Come see what you think, especially you Noah and Enoch.
The mans name is Abram, Jehovah continued, and is currently residing in the city of Haran in Paddan-Aram, but heralds from the city of Ur of Chaldeas fame.
This man is the son of Terah.He keeps himself to himself and doesnt involve himself in the false worship around him.
He`s obedient to the knowledge of me, that was passed down to him through the generations and seeks me before he attempts anything important.
The family fled the religious conformity of Ur, even though it was their homeland for ages.
What do you thik gentlemen, is he not a fine choice"?
They all agreed without reservation, though they only knew the bare outlines of the projected plan, something only the master and Michael knew fully.
"I do declare now by the power of my name Jehovah,that I do sanction the choice of this man and his decendants, for the fulfilling of the destiny I wish brought upon the earth.
I will bless him by making his family line the chosen inheritors of my chosen land, if he remains faithful.
This is a sacred covenant I will keep forever, as a symbol of hope for mankind, and I will change his name to Abraham to signify this blessing.
I also declare that the land that I have chosen to bless, and use in my plans to reassert my sovereignty is the land of Canaan".
"Canaan," they all said, a little bemused.
The Most High felt that he should outline his reasonings.
"Canaan is the ideal place, and has many really good aspects. Its got a varied landscape. Plains and river valleys, mountains and deserts and as such could be identifiable with to any inhabitants on earth. It has rich agriculural land, especially when I bless it. Everyone laughed "And your going to have to do that", Michael added.
"But most importantly, Jehovahmotioned to them, it is on one of the major crossroads of the world. A good number of the caravan land trade routes from three continents pass through there or near it.
Perfect for disseminating sacred secrets eh! Gabriel".
"Why yes master. Its well placed for that" he replied.
