Genesis 17:5

And the Name of yourself is not again being read 'High Father' but the Name of yourself has become 'Father of Multitude', for I have given to you a father of a multitude of nations.616


Footnote:

616

Father of a Multitude (Strong’s #87, #85). The renaming of High-Father (High Exalted Father) to Father-of-Multitude is associated with him becoming a father of a Multitude. As seen in the previous note, -ham is derived from hamon.
