Genesis 26:17-22
Excerpted from: Four Views of Christ (Part 1)Water plays a very significant role in the lives of people in the book of Genesis.
I want you to notice something as we go by here. I think you all understand that Isaac was a type of Christ. If we would go through all the chapters that have to do with Abraham and Isaac, I think you would be very surprised to see how much wells of water had to do with their well-being. God led them to wells of water.
What did the world do? The world tried to steal them. The world tried to plug them up. God is showing a form of persecution. The elect, He is showing, have access to the wells God supplies while the world tries to stop up—persecute—so we cannot drink from them.
Genesis 26:20-22
Excerpted from: Abraham (Part Eleven)Isaac was a man of peace. He was a man that gave space to anger. He was a man that did not go to war with people even though they were treating him deviously and unfairly. He simply moved somewhere else.
