What lead to Abraham believing it was God who spoke to him?

This same God could also make beings that could make their own world, if God willed the desire to make such beings. Such a being could obviously perform miracles and fortell true prophecies in his/her world.

Abraham obviously believed God didn’t make such beings, or, he believed that it wasn’t that being who spoke to him.

What lead to Moses believing it was God and not a being could could’ve made? What was the evidence?

Did he just assume that there’s no beings superior to humans but inferior to God who could make universes as we can make video games?

And yet he did, that is the point. Such things as you discribe were not revant at the point. Angels are not independant agents. They only had the power to do what God allowed as the start of the story of Job shows.

Uhh… because He said so?
Genesis 17:1 reads “I am God” as God talked to Abraham. Plus, He appeared to Abraham so i guess that adds up.
And Exodus 3:6 also reads “I am the God of Abraham” when God talked to Moses using the burning bush. He didnt assume, he has knowledge. Moses know about the God of Israelites. Then he learned that he is one of them then that makes him a descendant of Abraham. Thats why God only reminded him “I am the God of your Father, and of Abraham…”

And making video games is not the same as God made everything.

Don’t think he did know but believed it was and God accredited it to him as faith
