Sarai and Hagar
1 ch. 15:2,3Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, had borne him no children. She had a female Egyptian servant whose name was ch. 21:9;Gal. 4:24Hagar. 2 And Sarai said to Abram, "Behold now, the Lord has prevented me from bearing children. Go in to my servant; it may be that I shall obtain children16:2 Hebrew be built up, which sounds like the Hebrew for children by her." And Abram listened to the voice of Sarai. 3 So, after Abram ch. 12:5had lived ten years in the land of Canaan, Sarai, Abram’s wife, took Hagar the Egyptian, her servant, and gave her to Abram her husband as a wife. 4 And he went in to Hagar, and she conceived. And when she saw that she had conceived, [1 Sam. 1:6,7]she looked with contempt on her mistress.16:4 Hebrew her mistress was dishonorable in her eyes; similarly in verse 5
15 And Hagar bore Abram a son, and Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael. 16 Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
