GENESIS

Genesis 21

1The Lord visited Sarah as he had said, and the Lord did to Sarah as he had spoken.
Psalms 12:6, Genesis 18:10, Psalms 12:6, Genesis 18:10, Genesis 17:19
2Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
Hebrews 11:11, Galatians 4:22, Hebrews 11:11, Galatians 4:22, Luke 1:36
3Abraham called his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
Genesis 17:19, Genesis 17:19, Romans 9:7, Genesis 21:6, Romans 9:7
4Abraham circumcised his son, Isaac, when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.
Acts 7:8, Acts 7:8, Genesis 17:10, Genesis 17:12, Luke 2:21
5Abraham was one hundred years old when his son, Isaac, was born to him.
Genesis 17:17, Genesis 17:17, Romans 4:19, Genesis 17:1, Romans 4:19
6Sarah said, "God has made me laugh. Everyone who hears will laugh with me."
Isaiah 54:1, Psalms 126:2, Isaiah 54:1, Psalms 126:2, Genesis 17:17
7She said, "Who would have said to Abraham, that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age."
Isaiah 66:8, Genesis 18:11, Genesis 18:12, Isaiah 66:8, Genesis 18:11
8The child grew, and was weaned. Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.
1 Samuel 1:22, 1 Samuel 1:22, Hosea 1:8, Hosea 1:8, Genesis 19:3
9Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.
Genesis 16:15, Genesis 16:15, Galatians 4:29, Galatians 4:29, Genesis 16:1
10Therefore she said to Abraham, "Cast out this handmaid and her son! For the son of this handmaid will not be heir with my son, Isaac."
John 8:35, John 8:35, 1 Peter 1:4, 1 John 2:19, Galatians 4:22
11The thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight on account of his son.
Genesis 17:18, Hebrews 12:11, Genesis 17:18, Hebrews 12:11, 2 Samuel 18:33
12God said to Abraham, "Do not let it be grievous in your sight because of the boy, and because of your handmaid. In all that Sarah says to you, listen to her voice. For from Isaac will your seed be called.
Hebrews 11:18, Hebrews 11:18, Romans 9:7, Romans 9:8, Romans 9:7
13I will also make a nation of the son of the handmaid, because he is your seed."
Genesis 21:18, Genesis 21:18, Genesis 16:10, Genesis 17:20, Genesis 16:10
14Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a bottle of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
Proverbs 27:14, Genesis 26:31, Psalms 107:4, Genesis 21:31, Genesis 16:7
15The water in the bottle was spent, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
Jeremiah 14:3, Exodus 15:22, Exodus 15:25, Psalms 63:1, 2 Kings 3:9
16She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, "Do not let me see the death of the child." She sat over against him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.
Esther 8:6, Isaiah 49:15, 1 Kings 3:26, Esther 8:6, Isaiah 49:15
17God heard the voice of the boy. The angel of God called to Hagar out of the sky, and said to her, "What ails you, Hagar? Do not be afraid. For God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.
Genesis 16:11, Genesis 16:11, Psalms 50:15, Psalms 50:15, Exodus 3:7
18Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him in your hand. For I will make him a great nation."
Genesis 21:13, Genesis 21:13, Genesis 16:10, Genesis 16:10, 1 Chronicles 1:29
19God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, filled the bottle with water, and gave the boy drink.
Numbers 22:31, Numbers 22:31, 2 Kings 6:17, 2 Kings 6:20, 2 Kings 6:17
20God was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and became, as he grew up, an archer.
Genesis 28:15, Genesis 28:15, Genesis 39:21, Genesis 39:21, Genesis 16:12
21He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother took a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.
Judges 14:2, Genesis 24:3, Genesis 24:4, Numbers 13:26, Genesis 26:34
22It happened at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, "God is with you in all that you do.
Genesis 26:26, Genesis 26:26, Genesis 26:28, Joshua 3:7, Genesis 20:2
23Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner."
Joshua 2:12, Joshua 2:12, Genesis 20:14, Genesis 20:14, 1 Samuel 30:15
24Abraham said, "I will swear."
Genesis 14:13, Romans 12:18, Hebrews 6:16, Genesis 14:13, Romans 12:18
25Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.
Genesis 26:15, Genesis 26:22, Genesis 26:15, Genesis 26:22, Matthew 18:15
26Abimelech said, "I do not know who has done this thing. Neither did you tell me, neither did I hear of it, until today."
Genesis 13:7, 2 Kings 5:20, 2 Kings 5:24, Genesis 13:7, 2 Kings 5:20
27Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech. Those two made a covenant.
1 Samuel 18:3, Proverbs 21:14, Isaiah 32:8, Genesis 14:22, Genesis 14:23
28Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
29Abimelech said to Abraham, "What do these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves mean?"
Exodus 12:26, Genesis 33:8, 1 Samuel 15:14, Exodus 12:26, Genesis 33:8
30He said, "You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well."
Genesis 31:52, Genesis 31:52, Joshua 24:27, Genesis 31:44, Genesis 31:48
31Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore there.
Genesis 26:33, Genesis 26:33, Genesis 21:14, Genesis 21:14, 2 Samuel 17:11
32So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
Exodus 13:17, Judges 13:1, Genesis 31:53, 1 Samuel 18:3, Genesis 10:14
33Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and called there on the name of the Lord, the Everlasting God.
1 Timothy 1:17, 1 Timothy 1:17, Isaiah 40:28, Isaiah 40:28, Psalms 90:2
34Abraham lived as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines many days.
