Génesis 15:4 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 15:4

And behold, the word of the Lord [came] unto him
Either having disappeared, and then came a second time, or he again spoke unto him:

saying, this shall not be thine heir;
this Eliezer, this servant of thine, as thou hast made him, or hast intended to make him, giving up all hopes of having issue by Sarai:

but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine
heir;
that is, one shall inherit all thou hast, that shall be begotten by thee; an own son of Abram's, and not a servant born in his house; one that should spring out of his own loins: the Vulgate Latin version renders it, "out of thy womb", that is, out of his wife's, which was his; the phrase designs a genuine and legitimate son of his, who would be legally his heir.

2 Y respondió Abram: Señor DIOS ¿qué me has de dar, siendo así que yo ando solo, y el mayordomo de mi casa es el damasceno Eliezer?
3 Dijo más Abram: He aquí no me has dado simiente, y he aquí el hijo de mi casa me hereda.
4 Y luego la palabra del SEÑOR vino a él diciendo: No te heredará éste, sino el que saldrá de tus entrañas, aquél te heredará.
5 Y le sacó fuera, y dijo: Mira ahora a los cielos, y cuenta las estrellas, si las puedes contar. Y le dijo: Así será tu simiente.
6 Y creyó al SEÑOR, y se lo contó por justicia.
