Abraham, the One who entered the history of man,
wants, through you, only to unveil this mystery
hidden from the foundation of the world
a mystery older than the world!
If today we go to these places
whence, long ago, Abraham set out,
where he heard the Voice, where the promise was fulfilled,
we do so in order to stand at the threshold
to go back to the beginning of the Covenant.
