Gênesis 26:9 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 26:9

And Abimelech called Isaac
Sent a messenger to desire him to come to him: and said, behold, of a surety she [is] thy wife:
and then perhaps told him of what he had observed that passed between them; which was a clear proof that they must be man and wife, or he would never have took such liberties with her: and how saidst thou, she [is] my sister?
what reason hadst thou for it? what could induce thee to say so? and Isaac said unto him;
not alleging, as Abraham did, any relation that was between them before marriage: because I said;
that is, within himself, for, he did not speak it out to others: lest I die for her;
for her sake, that another might have and enjoy her; it was fear of losing his life that led him to take such a step, and give out that she was his sister.

Gênesis 26:9 In-Context

7 Então os homens do lugar perguntaram-lhe acerca de sua mulher, e ele respondeu: É minha irmã; porque temia dizer: É minha mulher; para que porventura, dizia ele, não me matassem os homens daquele lugar por amor de Rebeca; porque era ela formosa � vista.
8 Ora, depois que ele se demorara ali muito tempo, Abimeleque, rei dos filisteus, olhou por uma janela, e viu, e eis que Isaque estava brincando com Rebeca, sua mulher.
9 Então chamou Abimeleque a Isaque, e disse: Eis que na verdade é tua mulher; como pois disseste: E minha irmã? Respondeu-lhe Isaque: Porque eu dizia: Para que eu porventura não morra por sua causa.
10 Replicou Abimeleque: Que é isso que nos fizeste? Facilmente se teria deitado alguém deste povo com tua mulher, e tu terias trazido culpa sobre nós.
11 E Abimeleque ordenou a todo o povo, dizendo: Qualquer que tocar neste homem ou em sua mulher, certamente morrerá.
