Six: Smoking Pot & Flaming Torches? (What In The World? Part 2)

In our current What in the World Part 2 series, we are answering questions you had asked us at the end of last year. This is week 6, and this was the question: In Genesis 15:17 it says that a smoking fire pot and flaming torch passed between the halves of the animals Abraham cut in half at God’s direction. What is the significance of the fire pot and torch moving between the halves? It’s a good question because our present understanding of covenant and redemption takes shape during this moment.
