AḆRAHAM 110

1 When 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 had departed from me, I went into the Mishkan and I remained there fasting and praying for three days.

2 And at the end of that time Noaḥ came to me and he said, Hail, Aḇraham, for thou art highly favored of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄.

3 Behold, I come to thee from the city of Ḥanoḵ my father to bestow upon thee the keys which I received from Ḥanoḵ many years ago, for thou shalt stand at the head and thy posterity shall be without number and in thee and in thy seed after thee shall all the nations of the earth be baruḵ.

4 When Noaḥ had departed from me, I rose up and was circumcised by Eli’ezer and all the males of my house were circumcised with me, including my son Yishma’ĕl who was thirteen years old at this time.

5 And I conferred upon my son Yishma’ĕl the Kehunnah of Elias and ordained him to be a kohĕn that he might minister before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄.

6 But Yishma’ĕl did not honor his kehunnah, taking it to be a light thing, which thing was a grief of heart unto me for I knew that in the shamayim he was counted as having no kehunnah because he honored it not; wherefore, I did not call upon him to act in the kohenim office.
