We explore the story of Abraham, Sarai, and Hagar from Genesis 16 and 17. We delve into the implications of Sarai's suggestion to Abraham to father a child with Hagar, the resulting tension within the household, and the birth of Ishmael. We reflect on the 13 years of silence before God gives Abraham a new name and reaffirms his covenant, introducing circumcision as a symbol of the Abrahamic Covenant. Lastly, we discuss the shock and laughter that ensue when God reveals that Sarah, despite her age, will bear a son, Isaac, who will inherit the covenant promises.
