AMPLIFIED 2015					Gen 26:1 Now there was a famine in the land [of Canaan], besides the previous famine that had occurred in the days of Abraham. So Isaac went to Gerar, to ¹Abimelech king of the Philistines.

Amplified 2015 Translator's Notes:
Literal renderings, alternate translations or explanations.

This is not the Abimelech of ch 20. Abimelech may actually be a dynastic title, like Caesar or Pharaoh, instead of a proper name. The events recounted in chapters 20 and 26 are separated by almost a hundred years.
