1 Und Abraham brach auf von dannen nach dem Lande des Südens und wohnte zwischen Kades und Sur; und er hielt sich auf zu Gerar.

2 Und Abraham sagte von Sara, seinem Weibe: Sie ist meine Schwester. Da sandte Abimelech, (Abimelech war ein gemeinschaftlicher Titel aller Könige der Philister) der König von Gerar, und ließ Sara holen. (W. nahm Sara)

3 Und Gott kam zu Abimelech in einem Traume der Nacht und sprach zu ihm: Siehe, du bist des Todes wegen des Weibes, das du genommen hast; denn sie ist eines Mannes Eheweib.

4 Abimelech aber hatte sich ihr nicht genaht; und er sprach: Herr, willst du auch eine gerechte Nation töten?

5 Hat er nicht zu mir gesagt: Sie ist meine Schwester? Und auch sie selbst hat gesagt: Er ist mein Bruder. In Lauterkeit meines Herzens und in Unschuld meiner Hände habe ich dies getan.

6 Und Gott sprach zu ihm im Traume: Auch ich weiß, daß du in Lauterkeit deines Herzens dies getan hast, und so habe ich dich auch davon abgehalten, gegen mich zu sündigen; darum habe ich dir nicht gestattet, sie zu berühren.

7 Und nun gib das Weib des Mannes zurück; denn er ist ein Prophet und wird für dich bitten, und du wirst am Leben bleiben. Wenn du sie aber nicht zurückgibst, so wisse, daß du gewißlich sterben wirst, du und alles, was dein ist!

8 Und Abimelech stand des Morgens früh auf und rief alle seine Knechte und redete alle diese Worte vor ihren Ohren; und die Männer fürchteten sich sehr.

9 Und Abimelech rief Abraham und sprach zu ihm: Was hast du uns angetan! Und was habe ich wider dich gesündigt, daß du über mich und über mein eich eine große Sünde gebracht hast? Dinge, die nicht getan werden sollten, hast du mir angetan.

10 Und Abimelech sprach zu Abraham: Was hast du beabsichtigt, daß du dies getan hast?

11 Und Abraham sprach: Weil ich mir sagte: Gewiß ist keine (O. Es ist gar keine) Gottesfurcht an diesem Orte, und sie werden mich töten um meines Weibes willen.

12 Auch ist sie wahrhaftig meine Schwester, die Tochter meines Vaters, nur nicht die Tochter meiner Mutter; und sie ist mein Weib geworden.

13 Und es geschah, als Gott mich wandern ließ aus meines Vaters Hause, da sprach ich zu ihr: Dies sei deine Güte, die du mir erweisen mögest; an jedem Orte, wohin wir kommen werden, sage von mir: Er ist mein Bruder.

14 Da nahm Abimelech Kleinvieh und inder und Knechte und Mägde und gab sie dem Abraham; und er gab ihm Sara, sein Weib, zurück.

15 Und Abimelech sprach: Siehe, mein Land ist vor dir; wohne, wo es gut ist in deinen Augen.

16 Und zu Sara sprach er: Siehe, ich habe deinem Bruder tausend Silbersekel gegeben; siehe, das sei dir eine Augendecke vor allen, die bei dir sind, und in Bezug auf alles ist die Sache rechtlich geschlichtet. (O. Es ist dir recht geschehen; O. und so bist du vor allen gerechtfertigt. And. üb.:… und bei allen. So wurde sie gestraft)

17 Und Abraham betete zu Gott; und Gott heilte Abimelech und sein Weib und seine Mägde, so daß sie gebaren.

18 Denn Jehova hatte um Saras, des Weibes Abrahams, willen jeden Mutterleib im Hause Abimelechs gänzlich verschlossen.

2504. And he sojourned in Gerar. That this signifies instruction thence in the spiritual things of faith, is evident from the signification of “sojourning,” as being to be instructed (see n. 1463, 2025); and from the signification of “Gerar,” as being what is spiritual of faith. Gerar is named in several places in Genesis (as chapter 10; 26:1, 6, 17, 20, 26); and in these it signifies faith, and this for the reason that Gerar was in Philistia; and by “Philistia” is signified the mere memory-knowledge of the knowledges of faith (see n. 1197, 1198); and it was Gerar where the king of the Philistines dwelt. Hence it is that faith itself is signified by “Gerar” (n. 1209); and by the “king of Gerar,” the truth itself of faith; for “king” in the internal sense is truth (n. 1672, 2015, 2069). Thus by “Abimelech” is signified the doctrine of faith, concerning which in what follows.

[2] In general there are intellectual things of faith, rational things of faith, and memory-knowledges of faith. They thus proceed in their order from interiors to exteriors. The things of faith which are inmost are called intellectual; those which proceed from them or thence are the rational things of faith; and those which proceed again from these are the memory-knowledges of faith. They are-to use the language of the learned-as prior to posterior, or what is the same, as higher to lower, that is, as interior to exterior. It indeed appears to man as if the memory-knowledge of faith were first, and that the rational then came forth from it, and at length the intellectual; and this for the reason that man advances in this way from his childhood. Nevertheless, although man is not aware of it, the intellectual flows in continually into the rational, and this into the faculty of knowing; 1 but in childhood obscurely, in adult age more evidently, and at last in full light when the man has been regenerated. Then it is apparent that this is the order, and still more fully in the other life (see n. 1495). All these are called “spiritual things;” which are distinguished in this way into degrees, and succeed one another in such an order. The spiritual things of faith are all the truths which are from good, that is, from a celestial origin. Whatever is derived from the celestial is a spiritual thing of faith.

Genesis 20

1 Abraham traveled from there toward the land of the South, and lived between Kadesh and Shur. He lived as a foreigner in Gerar.

2 Abraham said about Sarah his wife, "She is my sister." Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.

3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him, "Behold, you are a dead man, because of the woman whom you have taken. For she is a man's wife."

4 Now Abimelech had not come near her. He said, "Lord, will you kill even a righteous nation?

5 Didn't he tell me, 'She is my sister?' She, even she herself, said, 'He is my brother.' In the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands have I done this."

6 God said to him in the dream, "Yes, I know that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I also withheld you from sinning against me. Therefore I didn't allow you to touch her.

7 Now therefore, restore the man's wife. For he is a prophet, and he will pray for you, and you will live. If you don't restore her, know for sure that you will die, you, and all who are yours."

8 Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ear. The men were very scared.

9 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, "What have you done to us? How have I sinned against you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? You have done deeds to me that ought not to be done!"

10 Abimelech said to Abraham, "What did you see, that you have done this thing?"

11 Abraham said, "Because I thought, 'Surely the fear of God is not in this place. They will kill me for my wife's sake.'

12 Besides, she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.

13 It happened, when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said to her, 'This is your kindness which you shall show to me. Everywhere that we go, say of me, "He is my brother."'"

14 Abimelech took sheep and cattle, male servants and female servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored Sarah, his wife, to him.

15 Abimelech said, "Behold, my land is before you. Dwell where it pleases you."

16 To Sarah he said, "Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver. Behold, it is for you a covering of the eyes to all that are with you. In front of all you are vindicated."

17 Abraham prayed to God. God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his female servants, and they bore children.

18 For Yahweh had closed up tight all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.
