 =====berit bin=====
-'berit bin' is a phrase that appears in the context of the story of [[Abraham]]. The words [[berit]] and [[bin]] are plain enough, and mean "contract" and "knowledge" respectively. The adjoining of these two words could be interpreted to mean a "knowledge contract" or "contract knowledge" (ie. a general knowledge of contracts and their legal implications) or as a "contract of knowledge", with some unspecified detailed knowledge passed on as a part of or a stipulation of said contract.

 In Genesis chapter 17:2 [[Ihoh]] arrives to make a contract with Abraham, which he calls a 'berit bin'. It is not entirely clear how this contract relates to the previous agreement [[Ihoh]] made with Abraham back in chapter 12.
