NETBible

So after Abram had lived¹ in Canaan for ten years, Sarai, Abram’s wife, gave Hagar, her Egyptian servant,² to her husband to be his wife.³

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “at the end of ten years, to live, Abram.” The prepositional phrase introduces the temporal clause, the infinitive construct serves as the verb, and the name “Abram” is the subject.

²tn Heb “the Egyptian, her female servant.”

³sn To be his wife. Hagar became a slave wife, not on equal standing with Sarai. However, if Hagar produced the heir, she would be the primary wife in the eyes of society. When this eventually happened, Hagar become insolent, prompting Sarai’s anger.
