Génesis 26:5 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 26:5

Because that Abraham obeyed my voice
In all things, and particularly in offering up his son at his command: and kept my charge;
whatever was given him in charge to observe; this, as Aben Ezra thinks, is the general, of which the particulars follow: my commandments, my statutes, and my laws;
whether moral, ceremonial, or civil and judicial; all and everyone which God enjoined him, he was careful to observe. Here seems to be something wanting, for the words are not to be joined with the preceding, as if Abraham's obedience was the cause of the above promises made to Isaac, or to himself: but this is mentioned rather as an example to Isaac, and to stir him up to do the like, as if it was said, because or seeing that Abraham thy father did so and so, do thou likewise.

Génesis 26:5 In-Context

3 Vive en ese lugar por un tiempo. Yo estaré contigo y te bendeciré, porque a ti y a tu descendencia les daré todas esas tierras. Así confirmaré el juramento que le hice a tu padre Abraham.
4 Multiplicaré a tus descendientes como las estrellas del cielo, y les daré todas esas tierras. Por medio de tu descendencia todas las naciones de la tierra serán bendecidas,
5 porque Abraham me obedeció y cumplió mis preceptos y mis mandamientos, mis normas y mis enseñanzas».
6 Isaac se quedó en Guerar.
7 Y cuando la gente del lugar le preguntaba a Isaac acerca de su esposa, él respondía que ella era su hermana. Tan bella era Rebeca que Isaac tenía miedo de decir que era su esposa, pues pensaba que por causa de ella podrían matarlo.
