Unaware of Danger
Avram did not recognize that going down to Egypt was going to endanger Sarai until it was too late.
Descent to Egypt
Preservation of Life Most Important
It was legitimate to put Sarai in potential danger if in so doing Avram's life was to be saved.
Hoping to Protect Sarai
Avram had a plan which he hoped would protect both him and Sarai and had never intended to save himself at her expense.
Avram Sinned
Avram's actions in descending to Egypt and endangering Sari were problematic and Avram was punished for them.
