How was the gospel given to Abraham, before Jesus/Yeshua was born?
Galatians 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
Hint: Strong’s G3801
The answer is here. Read this after you make your choice. https://docs.google.com/docume....nt/d/10gFwcIi2-DJNuJ

Options 1 and 4, you need to know the name of Father or the gospel to be able to see the message in something. If you simply look at a name written then it has no meaning, similarly if you look up to the stars and no one has told your the patterns or stories.
I read your article and it is totally relevant, I just don't see someone looking at a name with 4 letters and then reading something so amazing into it.
So in my view, Abraham would have needed guidance/knowledge to start with.
Options 2 and 3 are therefore more relevant to me as it shows "someone" giving him knowledge.
This is now a difficult one as I see another option for the poll.
Noah still lived while Terah (Abraham's father) was alive and Abraham was born or very young at that time.
My view is therefore that Abraham received his knowledge from two sides:
1. Directly or indirectly from tellings and teachings by Noah. As all grandchildren without TVs are, they would have loved to hear Noah telling of his adventures and his relationship with Father.
2. Melchizedek was Priest at that time, hence why Abraham went to him to thank Father by tithing after he freed Lot, so Abraham knew Torah from those teachings and Yeshua was propesied in Genesis already.
I would think that through those teachings Abraham came to the gospel.
