Hi dear jewscout,
Actually i have some questions reagrding to your quotes below and i hope that you will help me to undersatnd it more.
4 So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.
Abraham had not any child when he was 75 years old and this verse might go for the seed of Ishamel and isaac as well.
20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.

one more verse ...jewscout said:Gen. 12:1-3
Now HaShem said unto Abram: 'Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto the land that I will show thee.
And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and be thou a blessing.
And I will bless them that bless thee, and him that curseth thee will I curse; and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed.'
4 So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.
Abraham had not any child when he was 75 years old and this verse might go for the seed of Ishamel and isaac as well.
and we add here too one more ...Gen. 17:19
And G-d said: ''Nay, but Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son; and thou shalt call his name Isaac; and I will establish My covenant with him for an everlasting covenant for his seed after him.
20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.
So what is so special about this verse regarding to the sons of Israel?Exodus 2:24-25
And G-d heard their groaning, and G-d remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
And G-d saw the children of Israel, and G-d took cognizance of them.

Did a people of inheritance meant God's chosen?Deut. 4:20
But you hath HaShem taken and brought forth out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be unto Him a people of inheritance, as ye are this day
Can you explain for me please what is the point in this verse?Deut. 4:36-37
Out of heaven He made thee to hear His voice, that He might instruct thee; and upon earth He made thee to see His great fire; and thou didst hear His words out of the midst of the fire.
And because He loved thy fathers, and chose their seed after them, and brought thee out with His presence, with His great power, out of Egypt,
Thank you,
