Abraham and Abimelech

20:1 Abraham journeyed from there to the Negev 1  region and settled between Kadesh and Shur. While he lived as a temporary resident 2  in Gerar, 20:2 Abraham said about his wife Sarah, “She is my sister.” So Abimelech, king of Gerar, sent for Sarah and took her.

20:3 But God appeared 3  to Abimelech in a dream at night and said to him, “You are as good as dead 4  because of the woman you have taken, for she is someone else’s wife.” 5 

20:4 Now Abimelech had not gone near her. He said, “Lord, 6  would you really slaughter an innocent nation? 7  20:5 Did Abraham 8  not say to me, ‘She is my sister’? And she herself said, 9  ‘He is my brother.’ I have done this with a clear conscience 10  and with innocent hands!”

20:6 Then in the dream God replied to him, “Yes, I know that you have done this with a clear conscience. 11  That is why I have kept you 12  from sinning against me and why 13  I did not allow you to touch her. 20:7 But now give back the man’s wife. Indeed 14  he is a prophet 15  and he will pray for you; thus you will live. 16  But if you don’t give her back, 17  know that you will surely die 18  along with all who belong to you.”

20:8 Early in the morning 19  Abimelech summoned 20  all his servants. When he told them about all these things, 21  they 22  were terrified. 20:9 Abimelech summoned Abraham and said to him, “What have you done to us? What sin did I commit against you that would cause you to bring such great guilt on me and my kingdom? 23  You have done things to me that should not be done!” 24  20:10 Then Abimelech asked 25  Abraham, “What prompted you to do this thing?” 26 

20:11 Abraham replied, “Because I thought, 27  ‘Surely no one fears God in this place. They will kill me because of 28  my wife.’ 20:12 What’s more, 29  she is indeed my sister, my father’s daughter, but not my mother’s daughter. She became my wife. 20:13 When God made me wander 30  from my father’s house, I told her, ‘This is what you can do to show your loyalty to me: 31  Every place we go, say about me, “He is my brother.”’”

20:14 So Abimelech gave 32  sheep, cattle, and male and female servants to Abraham. He also gave his wife Sarah back to him. 20:15 Then Abimelech said, “Look, my land is before you; live wherever you please.” 33 

20:16 To Sarah he said, “Look, I have given a thousand pieces of silver 34  to your ‘brother.’ 35  This is compensation for you so that you will stand vindicated before all who are with you.” 36 

20:17 Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech, as well as his wife and female slaves so that they were able to have children. 20:18 For the Lord 37  had caused infertility to strike every woman 38  in the household of Abimelech because he took 39  Sarah, Abraham’s wife.

The Birth of Ishmael

16:1 Now Sarai, 40  Abram’s wife, had not given birth to any children, 41  but she had an Egyptian servant 42  named Hagar. 43  16:2 So Sarai said to Abram, “Since 44  the Lord has prevented me from having children, have sexual relations with 45  my servant. Perhaps I can have a family by her.” 46  Abram did what 47  Sarai told him.

23:25 He wrote 48  a letter that went like this: 49 

Seret untuk mengatur ukuranSeret untuk mengatur ukuran

[20:1]  1 tn Or “the South [country]”; Heb “the land of the Negev.”

[20:1]  sn Negev is the name for the southern desert region in the land of Canaan.

[20:1]  2 tn Heb “and he sojourned.”

[20:3]  3 tn Heb “came.”

[20:3]  4 tn Heb “Look, you [are] dead.” The Hebrew construction uses the particle הִנֵּה (hinneh) with a second person pronominal particle הִנֵּה (hinneh) with by the participle. It is a highly rhetorical expression.

[20:3]  5 tn Heb “and she is owned by an owner.” The disjunctive clause is causal or explanatory in this case.

[20:4]  6 tn The Hebrew term translated “Lord” here is אֲדֹנָי (’adonay).

[20:4]  7 tn Apparently Abimelech assumes that God’s judgment will fall on his entire nation. Some, finding the reference to a nation problematic, prefer to emend the text and read, “Would you really kill someone who is innocent?” See E. A. Speiser, Genesis (AB), 149.

[20:5]  8 tn Heb “he”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[20:5]  9 tn Heb “and she, even she.”

[20:5]  10 tn Heb “with the integrity of my heart.”

[20:6]  11 tn Heb “with the integrity of your heart.”

[20:6]  12 tn Heb “and I, even I, kept you.”

[20:6]  13 tn Heb “therefore.”

[20:7]  14 tn Or “for,” if the particle is understood as causal (as many English translations do) rather than asseverative.

[20:7]  15 sn For a discussion of the term prophet see N. Walker, “What is a Nabhi?” ZAW 73 (1961): 99-100.

[20:7]  16 tn After the preceding jussive (or imperfect), the imperative with vav conjunctive here indicates result.

[20:7]  sn He will pray for you that you may live. Abraham was known as a man of God whose prayer would be effectual. Ironically and sadly, he was also known as a liar.

[20:7]  17 tn Heb “if there is not you returning.” The suffix on the particle becomes the subject of the negated clause.

[20:7]  18 tn The imperfect is preceded by the infinitive absolute to make the warning emphatic.

[20:8]  19 tn Heb “And Abimelech rose early in the morning and he summoned.”

[20:8]  20 tn The verb קָרָא (qara’) followed by the preposition לְ (lamed) means “to summon.”

[20:8]  21 tn Heb “And he spoke all these things in their ears.”

[20:8]  22 tn Heb “the men.” This has been replaced by the pronoun “they” in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[20:9]  23 tn Heb “How did I sin against you that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin?” The expression “great sin” refers to adultery. For discussion of the cultural background of the passage, see J. J. Rabinowitz, “The Great Sin in Ancient Egyptian Marriage Contracts,” JNES 18 (1959): 73, and W. L. Moran, “The Scandal of the ‘Great Sin’ at Ugarit,” JNES 18 (1959): 280-81.

[20:9]  24 tn Heb “Deeds which should not be done you have done to me.” The imperfect has an obligatory nuance here.

[20:10]  25 tn Heb “And Abimelech said to.”

[20:10]  26 tn Heb “What did you see that you did this thing?” The question implies that Abraham had some motive for deceiving Abimelech.

[20:11]  27 tn Heb “Because I said.”

[20:11]  28 tn Heb “over the matter of.”

[20:12]  29 tn Heb “but also.”

[20:13]  30 tn The Hebrew verb is plural. This may be a case of grammatical agreement with the name for God, which is plural in form. However, when this plural name refers to the one true God, accompanying predicates are usually singular in form. Perhaps Abraham is accommodating his speech to Abimelech’s polytheistic perspective. (See GKC 463 §145.i.) If so, one should translate, “when the gods made me wander.”

[20:13]  31 tn Heb “This is your loyal deed which you can do for me.”

[20:14]  32 tn Heb “took and gave.”

[20:15]  33 tn Heb “In the [place that is] good in your eyes live!”

[20:16]  34 sn A thousand pieces [Heb “shekels”] of silver. The standards for weighing money varied considerably in the ancient Near East, but the generally accepted weight for the shekel is 11.5 grams (0.4 ounce). This makes the weight of silver here 11.5 kilograms, or 400 ounces (about 25 pounds).

[20:16]  35 sn To your ‘brother.’ Note the way that the king refers to Abraham. Was he being sarcastic? It was surely a rebuke to Sarah. What is amazing is how patient this king was. It is proof that the fear of God was in that place, contrary to what Abraham believed (see v. 11).

[20:16]  36 tn Heb “Look, it is for you a covering of the eyes, for all who are with you, and with all, and you are set right.” The exact meaning of the statement is unclear. Apparently it means that the gift of money somehow exonerates her in other people’s eyes. They will not look on her as compromised (see G. J. Wenham, Genesis [WBC], 2:74).

[20:18]  37 tn In the Hebrew text the clause begins with “because.”

[20:18]  38 tn Heb had completely closed up every womb.” In the Hebrew text infinitive absolute precedes the finite verb for emphasis.

[20:18]  sn The Lord had closed up every womb. This fact indicates that Sarah was in Abimelech’s household for weeks or months before the dream revelation was given (20:6-7). No one in his household could have children after Sarah arrived on the scene.

[20:18]  39 tn Heb “because of.” The words “he took” are supplied in the translation for clarity.

[16:1]  40 tn The disjunctive clause signals the beginning of a new episode in the story.

[16:1]  41 sn On the cultural background of the story of Sarai’s childlessness see J. Van Seters, “The Problem of Childlessness in Near Eastern Law and the Patriarchs of Israel,” JBL 87 (1968): 401-8.

[16:1]  42 tn The Hebrew term שִׁפְחָה (shifkhah, translated “servant” here and in vv. 2, 3, 5, 6, and 8) refers to a menial female servant.

[16:1]  43 sn The passage records the birth of Ishmael to Abram through an Egyptian woman. The story illustrates the limits of Abram’s faith as he tries to obtain a son through social custom. The barrenness of Sarai poses a challenge to Abram’s faith, just as the famine did in chap. 12. As in chap. 12, an Egyptian figures prominently. (Perhaps Hagar was obtained as a slave during Abram’s stay in Egypt.)

[16:2]  44 tn Heb “look.” The particle הִנֵּה (hinneh) introduces the foundational clause for the imperative to follow.

[16:2]  45 tn Heb “enter to.” The expression is a euphemism for sexual relations (also in v. 4).

[16:2]  sn The Hebrew expression translated have sexual relations with does not convey the intimacy of other expressions, such as “so and so knew his wife.” Sarai simply sees this as the social custom of having a child through a surrogate. For further discussion see C. F. Fensham, “The Son of a Handmaid in Northwest Semitic,” VT 19 (1969): 312-21.

[16:2]  46 tn Heb “perhaps I will be built from her.” Sarai hopes to have a family established through this surrogate mother.

[16:2]  47 tn Heb “listened to the voice of,” which is an idiom meaning “obeyed.”

[16:2]  sn Abram did what Sarai told him. This expression was first used in Gen 3:17 of Adam’s obeying his wife. In both cases the text highlights weak faith and how it jeopardized the plan of God.

[23:25]  48 tn Grk “writing.” Due to the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was begun here in the translation, supplying “he” (referring to the commanding officer, Claudius Lysias) as subject. The participle γράψας (grayas) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[23:25]  49 tn Grk “having this form,” “having this content.” L&N 33.48 has “γράψσς ἐπιστολὴν ἔχουσαν τὸν τύπον τοῦτον ‘then he wrote a letter that went like this’ Ac 23:25. It is also possible to understand ἐπιστολή in Ac 23:25 not as a content or message, but as an object (see 6.63).”
