Genesis 22:19-24

19 Then Abraham returned to his servants, and together they left for Beersheba. Abraham remained in Beersheba.

20 Later Abraham was told, "Milcah has given birth to these children of your brother Nahor:

21 Uz (the firstborn), Buz (his brother), Kemuel (father of Aram),

22 Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.

23 Bethuel is the father of Rebekah. Milcah had these eight sons by Abraham's brother Nahor.

24 Nahor's concubine, whose name was Reumah, had the following children: Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah."

Genesis 22:19-24 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO GENESIS 22

In this chapter we have an account of an order given by God to Abraham to sacrifice his son, Ge 22:1,2; of his readiness to obey the will of God, he immediately preparing everything for that purpose, Ge 22:3-10, of the order being reversed, and another sacrifice substituted in its room, which occasioned the giving a new name to the place where it was done, Ge 22:11-14; upon which the promise of special blessings, of a numerous offspring, and of the seed in whom all nations should be blessed, is renewed, Ge 22:15-18; after this Abraham returns to Beersheba, where he is informed of the increase of his brother Nahor's family, Ge 22:19-24.
