The Holy Bible Audio Book Genesis Chapter 21 King James Version

4 months ago
26

This chapter centers around the fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham and Sarah with the birth of their long-awaited son, Isaac. After years of barrenness, this miraculous birth signifies God's faithfulness and the unfolding of His divine plan.
However, the joy of Isaac's birth also brings tension and conflict. Sarah, now having conceived and given birth to the promised heir, becomes jealous of Hagar and Ishmael, Abraham's first son born through Hagar. Fearing Ishmael might challenge Isaac's inheritance, Sarah demands that Abraham send Hagar and Ishmael away.
This audiobook narrates the complex decision Abraham faces and God's confirmation of Isaac as the true heir, leading to the departure of Hagar and Ishmael. The narrative also highlights God's compassion towards the marginalized, as He provides for Hagar and Ishmael in the wilderness.
Finally, the chapter concludes with the story of Abraham's covenant with Abimelech at Beersheba, marking Abraham's settling in the land.
