Genesis 20:15 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 20:15

And Abimelech said, behold, my whole land [is] before thee,
&c.] Instead of bidding him be gone, and sending him away in haste out of his country, as the king of Egypt did in a like case, he solicits his stay in it; and to encourage him to it, makes an offer of his whole kingdom to him, to choose which part of it he would to dwell in: dwell where it pleaseth thee;
if there was anyone part of it better than another, or more convenient for him, his family and his flocks, he was welcome to it.

Genesis 20:15 In-Context

13 When God sent me out as a wanderer from my father's home, I told her, 'Do me a favor; wherever we go, tell people that I'm your brother.'"

14 Then Abimelech gave Sarah back to Abraham, and along with her sent sheep and cattle and servants, both male and female.

15 He said, "My land is open to you; live wherever you wish."

16 And to Sarah he said, "I've given your brother a thousand pieces of silver - that clears you of even a shadow of suspicion before the eyes of the world. You're vindicated."

17 Then Abraham prayed to God and God healed Abimelech, his wife and his maidservants, and they started having babies again.
