Scofield Bible notes - The spiritual experience of Abraham was marked by 4 great crises, each of which involved a surrender of something naturally more dear.  These were:
(1) Country and kindred
(2) His nephew, Lot; especially dear to Abraham by nature, as a possible heir and as a fellow believer.  The completeness of Abraham's separation from one who, though a believer, was a "vessel unto dishonour".
(3) His own plan about Ishmael
(4)Isaac, "thy son, they only son Isaac, whom thou lovest"

(Scofield Bible) - Everlasting God (Heb. El Olam)
(1) The Hebrew Olam is used in Scripture:
     (a) of secret or hidden things (e.g., Lev 5:2, "hidden"; 2 Kings 4:27, "Hid", Psalm 10:1, "hidest";
     (b)an indefinite time or age (Lev 25:32, "at any time"; Joshua 24:2, "in old time".
     Hence the word is used to express the eternal duration of the being of God (Psalms XC.2 "From everlasting to everlasting"), and is the Hebrew synonym of the Greek Aion, age or dispensation.
