El Morya was embodied as [[Abraham]] (c. 2100 <small>B.C.</small>), the first Hebrew patriarch, the prototype and progenitor of the twelve tribes of Israel. Judaism, Christianity and Islam all trace their origins back to Abraham. Although scholars once widely assumed that he was either a mythical figure or a nomadic or semi-nomadic Semite, archaeological finds since World War I have corroborated the picture of Abraham that is given in the Bible itself. | El Morya was embodied as [[Abraham]] (c. 2100 <small>B.C.</small>), the first Hebrew patriarch, the prototype and progenitor of the twelve tribes of Israel.

And so, beholding his Son as the epitome of good will, I journeyed to him with heart full of love to plight to him my hand and heart and head in the divine dimension. I pledged it all to the young babe, and I remembered and recalled the will of God as it manifested in the angelic ministrants’ song coming through the heavens with paeans of praise to God: “Glory to God in the highest.” <ref> El Morya, July 3, 1965.</ref> | :Long ago, when my name was known as Melchior and I came with [[Kuthumi]] and [[Djwal Kul]] as one of the wise men of the East, as I came riding upon a camel to lay my offering at the feet of the Christ, I knew then that one day I should be devoted to the service of God’s will.
