Gênesis 21:24 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 21:24

And Abraham said, I will swear.
] Sensible of the many favours he had received from Abimelech in times past, and was still indulged with, he very readily agreed to his proposal; and the rather, as he knew by the vision between the pieces, that it would be four hundred years before his posterity should be put into the possession of the land of Canaan; and therefore could take an oath that neither he, nor his son, nor his grandson, should be injured or dispossessed.

Gênesis 21:24 In-Context

22 Naquele mesmo tempo Abimeleque, com Ficol, o chefe do seu exército, falou a Abraão, dizendo: Deus é contigo em tudo o que fazes;
23 agora pois, jura-me aqui por Deus que não te haverás falsamente comigo, nem com meu filho, nem com o filho do meu filho; mas segundo a beneficência que te fiz, me farás a mim, e � terra onde peregrinaste.
24 Respondeu Abraão: Eu jurarei.
25 Abraão, porém, repreendeu a Abimeleque, por causa de um poço de água, que os servos de Abimeleque haviam tomado � força.
26 Respondeu-lhe Abimeleque: Não sei quem fez isso; nem tu mo fizeste saber, nem tampouco ouvi eu falar nisso, senão hoje.
