Genesis 13:1
βAnd Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.β
KJV
Read in Genesis 13Meaning
Abram leaves Egypt and returns toward the Negev with Sarai, Lot, and all he possesses, beginning a narrative return to the land of his calling.
Read carefully
The geographical movement belongs to this narrative; it does not make every migration or return a universal spiritual rule.
Reflection
A return after failure can become the setting for renewed worship and renewed attention to God's call.
