Abraham Lifted Above His Constellation in Midrash Aggadah

"And He brought him outside" (Genesis 15:5). Abraham said to the Holy One, blessed be He: But do I not see in my constellation that I shall have no children, yet You say to me, "So shall your seed be"? The Holy One, blessed be He, said to him: All human beings dwell beneath their constellation, and therefore the constellation judges them; but you are above the dome of the firmament where the constellations are. And every place where "Look" (habet) is said, it is only from above to below, as it is written, "Look down from heaven and see" (Psalms 80:15). And why did the Holy One, blessed be He, bless Abram thus, "So (koh) shall your seed be"? That is to say, He blessed him with two of the names of the Holy One, blessed be He, for the numerical value of "koh" is as the numerical value of the Great Name. Another interpretation: The Holy One, blessed be He, said to Abraham, I will bless you with "koh," as it is written, "Thus (koh) shall you bless the children of Israel" (Numbers 6:23); and I will rescue Isaac from the binding through the merit of "koh," as it is written, "And I and the lad will go yonder (ad koh)" (Genesis 22:5).
