Genesis 20:16 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 20:16

14 Then Abimelech ^atook sheep, oxen, and male and female servants, and gave them to Abraham; and he restored Sarah his wife to him.

15 And Abimelech said, “See, ^amy land is before you; dwell where it pleases you.”

16 Then to Sarah he said, “Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver; ^aindeed this vindicates you ^bbefore all who are with you and before everybody.” Thus she was² rebuked.

17 So Abraham prayed ^ato God; and God ^bhealed Abimelech, his wife, and his female servants. Then they bore children;

18 for the Lord ^ahad closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech because of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.
