    Sarah's me-ism blinded her to Ishmael's value; Abraham's comfort blinded him to how best to support Hagar and Ishmael; Hagar, like many of our mothers, had to trust God in the desert. We today must support the Hagars of this world.

    The barren landscape seemed to dance before her eyes, as she looked toward a horizon littered with debris, strewn with the rubbish of thousands of careless people who had gone this way. Filthy and dirty as it was, though, it seemed to dance before her eyes, for the sun was high above and hot; the ...read more

    All of a sudden Ishmael isn’t smiling anymore. THE LAST LAUGH WAS ON HIM.

    Part 2 - Genesis 21:8-13 - THE LAST LAUGH! It was a boring job packing books and I remember we would look for ways to have a bit of fun in the warehouse.

    Studies In Genesis: Chapter 21 Series

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 15, 2011

    This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

    Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. Genesis 21 1. And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did unto Sarah as he had spoken. 2 ...read more
