Often people look at Ishmael in a negative light (Quote, "He was a wild donkey of a man"). But then again, what is the purpose of Gods covenant with him? (Genesis 17:11-27)
Often people ignorantly assume it was only Isaac & Abraham he made that covenant with. But God made a covenant with Ishmael, can somebody tell me about the significance of Ishmael from a scriptural perspective & the significance of this covenant?

Circumcision was a sign of the covenant! Don't you ever read the bible!?... Please only answer fi you know what your talkign about
