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 Quando os homens do lugar lhe perguntaram sobre a sua mulher, ele disse: “Ela é minha irmã”. Teve medo de dizer que era sua mulher, pois pensou: “Os homens deste lugar podem matar-me por causa de Rebeca, por ser ela tão bonita”.
8 Isaque estava em Gerar já fazia muito tempo. Certo dia, Abimeleque, rei dos filisteus, estava olhando do alto de uma janela quando viu Isaque acariciando Rebeca, sua mulher.
9 Então Abimeleque chamou Isaque e lhe disse: “Na verdade ela é tua mulher! Por que me disseste que ela era tua irmã?”Isaque respondeu: “Porque pensei que eu poderia ser morto por causa dela”.
10 Então disse Abimeleque: “Tens ideia do que nos fizeste? Qualquer homem bem poderia ter-se deitado com tua mulher, e terias trazido culpa sobre nós”.
11 E Abimeleque advertiu todo o povo: “Quem tocar neste homem ou em sua mulher certamente morrerá!”
