The LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did to Sarah as he had spoken. Psa 12:6Gen 18:10Gen 18:14Gal 4:23Gen 17:191Sa 2:21Mat 24:35Tit 1:2 Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him. Gal 4:22Heb 11:11Act 7:8Gen 17:19Gen 17:21Gen 18:10Gen 18:14Luk 1:24-25 Abraham called his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac. 1 Gen 17:19Gen 21:6Rom 9:7Gen 21:12Heb 11:18Jos 24:3Mat 1:2Act 7:8 Abraham circumcised his son, Isaac, when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him. Act 7:8Deu 12:32Exo 12:48Gen 17:10-12Jhn 7:22-23Lev 12:3Luk 1:59Luk 1:6 Abraham was one hundred years old when his son, Isaac, was born to him. Gen 17:17Gen 17:1Rom 4:19 Sarah said, “God has made me laugh. Everyone who hears will laugh with me.” Psa 126:2Isa 54:1Gen 17:17Luk 1:58Gal 4:27-28Isa 49:21Luk 1:14Luk 1:46-55 She said, “Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age.” Gen 18:11-12Isa 66:82Th 1:10Deu 4:32-34Eph 3:10Num 23:23Psa 86:10Psa 86:8
The child grew and was weaned. Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned. 1Sa 1:22Hos 1:81Ki 3:152Sa 3:20Gen 19:3Gen 26:30Gen 29:22Gen 40:20 Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking. Gal 4:29Gen 16:15Gal 4:22Gen 16:12Ch 30:102Ch 36:16Lam 1:7Pro 20:11 Therefore she said to Abraham, “Cast out this servant and her son! For the son of this servant will not be heir with my son, Isaac.” Jhn 8:351Jn 2:19Gal 4:22-311Pe 1:4Gen 36:6-7Gal 3:18Gal 4:7Gen 25:19
The thing was very grievous in Abraham’s sight on account of his son. Heb 12:11Gen 17:18Mat 10:372Sa 18:33Gen 22:1-2 God said to Abraham, “Don’t let it be grievous in your sight because of the boy, and because of your servant. In all that Sarah says to you, listen to her voice. For your offspring will be named through Isaac. Heb 11:18Rom 9:7-8Gen 17:191Sa 8:71Sa 8:9Gen 17:21Isa 46:10 I will also make a nation of the son of the servant, because he is your child.” Gen 16:10Gen 17:20Gen 21:18Gen 25:12-18 Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a container of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba. 1Ki 19:3Ecc 9:10Gen 16:7Gen 21:31Gen 25:6Gen 26:31Jhn 8:35Pro 27:14 The water in the container was spent, and she put the child under one of the shrubs. 2Ki 3:9Exo 15:22-25Jer 14:3Psa 63:1Exo 17:1-3Gen 21:14Isa 44:12 She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, “Don’t let me see the death of the child.” She sat opposite him, and lifted up her voice, and wept. Isa 49:151Ki 3:261Sa 24:161Sa 30:4Est 8:6Gen 29:11Jdg 2:4Rut 1:9 God heard the voice of the boy. Gen 16:11Psa 50:15Exo 3:7Psa 91:151Sa 11:52Ki 13:232Ki 13:4Exo 14:13
The angel of God called to Hagar out of the sky, and said to her, “What troubles you, Hagar? Don’t be afraid. For God has heard the voice of the boy where he is. Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him with your hand. For I will make him a great nation.” Gen 21:13Gen 16:101Ch 1:29-31Gen 17:20Gen 25:12-18
God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, filled the container with water, and gave the boy a drink. Num 22:312Ki 6:17-20Isa 35:5-6Luk 24:16-31
God was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and as he grew up, he became an archer. Gen 28:15Gen 39:21Gen 16:12Gen 10:9Gen 17:20Gen 25:27Gen 39:2-3Gen 49:23-24 He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother got a wife for him out of the land of Egypt. 1Co 7:381Sa 25:1Gen 24:3-4Gen 26:34-35Gen 27:46Jdg 14:2Num 10:12Num 12:16
At that time, Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, “God is with you in all that you do. Gen 26:26Gen 26:28Jos 3:7Gen 20:21Co 14:25Isa 8:10Rom 8:31Heb 13:5 Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son’s son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner.” Jos 2:12Gen 20:141Sa 20:131Sa 20:171Sa 20:421Sa 24:21-221Sa 30:152Co 1:23
Abraham said, “I will swear.” Gen 14:13Heb 6:16Rom 12:18 Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech’s servants had violently taken away. Gen 26:15-22Exo 2:15-17Gen 13:7Gen 29:8Jdg 1:15Mat 18:15Pro 17:10Pro 25:9 Abimelech said, “I don’t know who has done this thing. You didn’t tell me, and I didn’t hear of it until today.” 2Ki 5:20-24Gen 13:7
Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech. Those two made a covenant. 1Sa 18:3Ezk 17:13Gal 3:15Gen 14:22-23Gen 26:28-31Gen 31:44Isa 32:8Pro 17:8 Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves. Abimelech said to Abraham, “What do these seven ewe lambs, which you have set by themselves, mean?” Exo 12:26Gen 33:81Sa 15:14
He said, “You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well.” Gen 31:52Gen 31:44-48Jos 22:27-28Jos 24:27 Therefore he called that place Beersheba, 2 because they both swore an oath there. Gen 26:33Gen 21:141Ki 4:252Sa 17:11Gen 26:23Jdg 20:1Jos 15:28 So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines. 1Sa 18:3Exo 13:17Gen 10:14Gen 14:13Gen 21:27Gen 26:14Gen 26:8Gen 31:53 Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and there he called on the name of the LORD, 3 the Everlasting God. 1Ti 1:17Isa 40:28Psa 90:2Jer 10:10Rom 16:26Deu 33:27Gen 12:8Gen 4:26 Abraham lived as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines many days. 1Ch 29:151Pe 2:11Gen 20:1Heb 11:13Heb 11:9Psa 39:12
