Gênesis 25:2-3 NVT

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Genesis 25:1-34

The record of the death of Abraham is full of beauty. His life had been spent in the realm of the supernatural, the region of vision, the power of the spiritual. The whole of it is summed up in the words which declared that he died, "an old man, and full." His life was satisfied and rounded out to completion. He had started out to find a land and to found a nation. He died with no possession but a grave, and no sight of his posterity other than his son Isaac and his grandsons Esau and Jacob.... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 25:1-12

The Death of Abraham and His Dispositions (Genesis 25:1-12 a) The first tablet contains Abraham’s final disposition of his estate (Genesis 25:1-12). This is described as ‘the family history of Ishmael, the son of Abraham, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s maid bore to Abraham’ (Genesis 25:12) and would be maintained by him as the new senior member of the family. In the nature of what he was it is brief and only contains essential detail. (This may be the heading of the following tablet, but... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 25:1-6

Genesis 25:1-Joshua : . The Descendants of Abraham and Keturan.— The section belongs apparently to a late stratum of J. The obvious meaning is that Abraham married again and had six children after Sarah’ s death. This is remarkable in view of the fact that the birth of Isaac was effected only by the miraculous intervention of Providence. Midian ( Exodus 2:15 *) is the best known of the peoples mentioned, the Dedanites and Sabæ ans also occur several times. read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 25:1-18

Genesis 12:1 to Genesis 25:18 . The Story of Abraham.— In this section the three main sources, J. E, P are present. Gunkel has given strong reasons for holding that J is here made up of two main sources, one connecting Abraham with Hebron, the other with Beersheba and the Negeb. The former associates Abraham with Lot. (For details, see ICC.) On the interpretation to be placed on the figures of Abraham and the patriarchs, see the Introduction. The interest, which has hitherto been diffused... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Genesis 25:2

Quest. How could Abraham, being now about one hundred and forty years old, have so many children, when his body was dead in his hundredth year? Answ. Because that renewed strength which was miraculously conferred upon him, did still in a great measure remain in him, being not a temporary action, but a durable habit or power. These persons were the heads of several people dwelling in Arabia and Syria, where we shall find evident footsteps of their names amongst ancient geographers, only a little... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Genesis 25:1-6

CRITICAL NOTES.—Genesis 25:1. Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah. “Keturah is called a concubine in 1 Chronicles 1:32. It is usually assumed, but merely on the assumption of the history following in chronological sequences, that Abraham espoused Keturah after Sarah’s death. And the words ‘Then again,’ of the A.V. leave this impression on the English reader. But there is nothing in the original to bear this out. The literal sense is, ‘And Abraham added and took a wife.’... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Genesis 25:1-34

Genesis 25:0 (with Hebrews 12:16-17 ) The chief use, apparently, of some men's lives is that they may serve as beacons, warning off those who come after them from quicksand or whirlpool. They flame amidst the track to bid us beware. Such use the apostle found in the story of Esau: he holds it up before the eyes of the wavering Hebrew Christians, to urge them back from the gulf of apostasy towards which they were inclining. I. But the apostle says, "fornicator and profane person"; and is there... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Genesis 25:1-34

CHAPTER 25Then in chapter twenty-five we find thatAbraham [after Sarah's death] took another wife, her name was Keturah. [The name means, "mother of us all".] And she bare him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, Shuah. And Jokshan begat Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim. And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and Epher ( Genesis 25:1-4 ),And so forth, and the names mean nothing to us and probably never will. As I told you so often, it'll follow a line... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 25:1-34

Genesis 25:1. Keturah is here called a wife; but a learned writer in his Bibliotheca Biblia, printed at Oxford 1720, brings forward a supposition of the Jews, that Hagar returned to Abraham after the death of Sarah, and then received the name of Keturah. It was anciently a frequent custom for persons on being favoured with signal blessings to assume a new name, or to receive some addition to the old. Genesis 25:2. She bare him Zimran, and five others, to whom Abraham gave gifts, and... read more
