Der Bund

Abraham stands in the open wilderness, driving away birds of prey from the divided sacrificial animals laid upon the ground. The scene portrays the solemn covenant moment in Genesis 15, when God promised Abram descendants as numerous as the stars and a land inheritance secured by divine oath. The circling vultures emphasize the waiting, testing, and seriousness of the sacrifice, while Abram’s guarded posture shows his obedience as he protects the covenant offering until the Lord reveals His presence. This artwork is suited for teaching on faith, covenant promise, patience, and God’s binding commitment to fulfill His word.
