בראשית 20
אַבְרָהָם עוֹבֵר לְגֵרָר וּמַגִּיד לְכָל אֲנָשִׁים שֶׁשָּׂרָה הִיא אֲחוֹתוֹ, מִפַּחַד שֶׁיַּהֲרֹגוּ אוֹתוֹ בַּעַד־הָאִשָּׁה. מֶלֶךְ אֲבִימֶלֶךְ נוֹשֵׂא אֶת שָּׂרָה אֲבָלֵם אֱלֹהִים עוֹזֵר וּמְחִיז אֶת שָּׂרָה.

פַּרשָׁנוּת
Genesis chapter 20 is a fascinating chapter that reveals a lot about the character of Abraham. In this chapter, Abraham is faced with a difficult situation when he travels to Gerar and is forced to lie about his relationship with Sarah. He tells the king of Gerar, Abimelech, that Sarah is his sister instead of his wife. This lie is motivated by fear, as Abraham is afraid that if Abimelech knew Sarah was his wife, he would take her away from him. Abimelech does take Sarah, but God intervenes and warns Abimelech in a dream that Sarah is Abraham’s wife. Abimelech returns Sarah to Abraham and gives him gifts as a sign of his repentance. Abraham is then able to explain the truth to Abimelech, and Abimelech is understanding and forgiving. This chapter reveals a lot about Abraham’s character. He is a man of faith, but he is also a man of fear. He is willing to take risks, but he is also willing to lie to protect himself and his family. This chapter also reveals God’s character. He is a God of justice and mercy, as He intervenes to protect Sarah and then forgives Abimelech for his mistake. Overall, Genesis chapter 20 is a powerful chapter that reveals a lot about the characters of Abraham and God. It is a reminder that God is a God of justice and mercy, and that He is willing to forgive us when we make mistakes.
