      Like. Hagar and Sarah and Avraham all under one proverbial roof, and no sign of either God or another child.

      OK God appears to Avraham -- no NDE or bisected animals or dreamvision this time - and says I'm E-l Shaddai (whatever that means? it's a new God name?) - walk in My ways & be tamim

      I mean on top of everything else wasn't Avraham doing that already?

      Avraham falls down. Rashi says it's b/c he wasn't circumcised & couldn't stand before God

      Mmm 17:7 says God will continue to do covenants with Avraham's descendants, and I'm so reminded of all the covenant-doing language in Devarim. For the first time the Torah feels more continuous to me. & Mitzrayim - slavery - feels like partially a breach in our destiny

      the power of the name change in 17:5 is a little lessened b/c i've been calling him Avraham throughout in deference to Brachot 13a https://www.sefaria.org/Genesis.17.5?lang=bi&aliyot=1&p2=Berakhot.13a.8&lang2=bi …

      (God is Elokim here not Hashem, interestingly) Yeah this doesn't look like a "proper" covenant to me in terms of there's no mutual consent moment?

      Hey this whole Do Covenant Marks Also On Your Slaves is a Lot. What's a nonconsensual covenant??

      Hello hello, it's the Bechor Shor that I made friends with the Bechor Shor over! I've been friends with it for a while and I forget how cool this text is! https://www.sefaria.org/Genesis.17.11?lang=bi&aliyot=1&p2=Bekhor_Shor%2C_Genesis.17.11.1&lang2=bi …

          So why does it go Avraham's name change => circumcision => Sarah's name change? why aren't the two names together?
