Gênesis 20:17 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 20:17

So Abraham prayed unto God
As the Lord had told Abimelech be would, ( Genesis 20:7 ) ; he might pray for the forgiveness of him and his wife, and might give thanks that Sarah had been restored to him; but chiefly it was on account of Abimelech and his family: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants:
who by reason of some disease were rendered unfit for and incapable of cohabitation with their husbands, and they with them; but upon Abraham's prayer for them, who was heard, they were healed, and the disorder removed; the Targum of Jonathan is,

``his wife and concubines;''

and they bare [children];
cohabited and conceived, and bare and brought forth children, all which are comprehended in this expression.

Gênesis 20:17 In-Context

15 e disse-lhe Abimeleque: Eis que a minha terra está diante de ti; habita onde bem te parecer.

16 E a Sara disse: Eis que tenho dado a teu irmão mil moedas de prata; isso te seja por véu dos olhos a todos os que estão contigo; e perante todos estás reabilitada.

17 Orou Abraão a Deus, e Deus sarou Abimeleque, e a sua mulher e as suas servas; de maneira que tiveram filhos;

18 porque o Senhor havia fechado totalmente todas as madres da casa de Abimeleque, por causa de Sara, mulher de Abraão.
