The idiom "The word of Yahweh came to" is used to introduce a special message from God. See how you translated this idiom in [Genesis 15:1](./01.md). Alternate translation: "Yahweh gave him a message. He said, 'This" or "Yahweh spoke this message to him: 'This" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-idiom]])
# This man
This refers to Eliezer of Damascus.
# the one who will come from your own body
"the one that you will father" or "your very own son." Abram's own son would become his heir.
