Genesis 21:12 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 21:12

10 Therefore she said to Abraham, ^a“Cast out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, namely with Isaac.”

11 And the matter was very¹ displeasing in Abraham’s sight ^abecause of his son.

12 But God said to Abraham, “Do not let it be displeasing in your sight because of the lad or because of your bondwoman. Whatever Sarah has said to you, listen to her voice; for ^ain Isaac your seed shall be called.

13 Yet I will also make ^aa nation of the son of the bondwoman, because he is your¹ seed.”

14 So Abraham rose early in the morning, and took bread and¹ a skin of water; and putting it on her shoulder, he gave it and the boy to Hagar, and ^asent her away. Then she departed and wandered in the Wilderness of Beersheba.

15 And the water in the skin was used up, and she placed the boy under one of the shrubs.
