In a repeat of his actions in Egypt, Abraham puts his wife in the precarious position of being taken by another man. Abimelek gets confronted by God. God wants people to follow His righteous ways, not their sinful worldly ways.


This is the great work of a man: always to take the blame for his own sins before God, and to expect temptation to his last breath.” — Anthony the Great
