So Pharaoh called Abram and said, “What is this you have done to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife?
Genesis 12:18
Even the ancient Egyptians recognized the sanctity of marriage. What's wrong with America?
Most people reject “Jesus” because the name they are given is an Anglo-Saxon invention, the character they are given is a Greco-Roman adaptation, and the instruction they are given is a watery American invention.
What the vast majority of people are offered is an alternative version of Who He is, a fictional replacement figure filtered through several foreign cultures, diluted down through the ages, and fashioned in our image. And what is leftover at the end is sold back to us as if it were the original. It’s a lie that’s not hard to see through. And most can with ease. That’s the real reason most folks reject “Jesus”. Not the attitudes of the religious people.

Abram and Sarai were apparently half-siblings. Why did God approve of their marriage? My currently preferred theory is that this wasn't too long after the Flood and their DNA was still in pretty good shape, unlike ours. One evidence for this is their long lifespans. The result is that they weren't likely to pass on the same kinds of genetic disorders that we might.
Some of Abram's tests made him wealthier. This is a metaphor of his developing #faith and relationship with God. Check out this #chiasm in #genesis 12-13 that overlaps a parallelism in Genesis 12-14.
