Genesis chapter 26

Verse 1 - 3

Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob had trials and tribulations. If you read Acts 14:22, you see that God does not save from tribulation. God saves through tribulation. Isaac is instructed not to go to Egypt. God promises to be with Isaac like He was with Abraham.

Verse 4 and 5

The United States, Israel, and Western Europe should show how capitalism improves nations. We are electing people to govern us that were not born in this country. God is in control. Let’s see what happens.

Verse 6 - 11

It was common at this time that if a man had a beautiful wife, his life was in danger from those that wanted her. Abimelech, the king of Gerar, saw Isaac and Rebekah kissing and realises they are married. After he scolds Isaac for lying, he vows to kill any man besides Isaac who touches Rebekah.

Verse 12 - 16

Adam was formed to till the soil. The Jews moved to Israel in 1948. Israel went from being a desert wasteland to being the only nation in the Middle East that exports grain. Isaac could bring underground water to the surface. He becomes rich from farming. Abimelech asks Isaac to leave.

Verse 17 - 25

Isaac could bring underground water to the surface. The Philistines would claim ownership of wells Isaac dug. Isaac just moves and digs somewhere else.

Verse 26 - 33

Abimelech takes one of his friends and the chief captain of his army, and makes a covenant of peace with Isaac. Isaac doesn’t mention the wells.

Verse 34 and 35

Esau married two Hittite women when he turns forty. This grieves Isaac and Rebekah.
