Upon what ground were the previous promises then renewed to Abraham?

Answer

"And said, By Myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not
withheld thy son, thine only son: that in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy
seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the seashore; and thy seed shall possess the
gate of his enemies; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed
My voice." Verses 16-18.
