Genesis 21:27

21:27 Abraham took some sheep and cattle and gave them to Abimelech. The two of them made a treaty. ¹ 

Genesis 21:31

21:31 That is why he named that place ²  Beer Sheba, ³  because the two of them swore ⁴  an oath there.

Genesis 22:8

22:8 “God will provide ⁵  for himself the lamb for the burnt offering, my son,” Abraham replied. The two of them continued on together.

[21:27]  ¹ tn Heb “cut a covenant.”

[21:31]  ² tn Heb “that is why he called that place.” Some translations render this as an impersonal passive, “that is why that place was called.”

[21:31]  ³ sn The name Beer Sheba (בְּאֵר שָׁבַע, bÿ’er shava’) means “well of the oath” or “well of the seven.” Both the verb “to swear” and the number “seven” have been used throughout the account. Now they are drawn in as part of the explanation of the significance of the name.

[21:31]  ⁴ sn The verb forms a wordplay with the name Beer Sheba.

[22:8]  ³ tn Heb “will see for himself.” The construction means “to look out for; to see to it; to provide.”
