3 | Question about Abraham and Isaac | Genesis | nicko715 | 198886 | ||
Hello Loyal, Back in chapter 20, Sarah tells Abraham to basically get rid of Hagar and Ishmael. Not only that, but he was to write Ishmael off as an heir (21:10). So technically he was of Abraham, but he was left fatherless. As far as anyone was concerned, Ishmael had no father and therefore no part in the inheritance. That is my take on it anyway! Nick |
