Notes on this text (3)

1 A Avram otide odande na jug, i stani se između Kadisa i Sura; i živeše kao došljak u Geraru. 2 I govoraše za ženu svoju Saru: Sestra mi je. A car gerarski Avimeleh posla te uze Saru. 3 Ali dođe Bog Avimelehu noću u snu, i reče mu: Gle, poginućeš sa žene koju si uzeo, jer ima muža. 4 A Avimeleh ne beše se nje dotakao, i zato reče: Gospode, eda li ćeš i pravedan narod pogubiti? 5 Nije li mi sam kazao: Sestra mi je? A i ona sama kaza: Brat mi je. Učinio sam u čistoti srca svog i u pravdi ruku svojih. 6 Tada mu reče Bog u snu: Znam da si učinio u čistoti srca svog, zato te sačuvah da mi ne sagrešiš, i ne dadoh da je se dotakneš. 7 A sada vrati čoveku ženu njegovu, jer je prorok, i moliće se za te, te ćeš ostati živ. Ako li ne vratiš, znaj da ćeš umreti ti i svi tvoji. 8 I ujutru rano usta Avimeleh, i sazva sve sluge svoje, i kaza im sve ovo da čuju. I uplašiše se ljudi veoma. 9 Tada Avimeleh dozva Avrama i reče mu: Šta si nam učinio? Šta li sam ti zgrešio, te navuče na me i na carstvo moje toliko zlo? Učinio si mi šta ne valja činiti. 10 I još reče Avimeleh Avramu: Šta ti je bilo, te si to učinio? 11 A Avram odgovori: Govorih: jamačno nema straha Božjeg u ovom mestu, pa će me ubiti radi žene moje. 12 A upravo i jeste mi sestra, kći oca mog; ali nije kći moje matere, pa pođe za me. 13 A kad me Bog izvede iz doma oca mog, ja joj rekoh: Učini dobro, i kaži za me gde god dođemo: Brat mi je. 14 Tada Avimeleh uze ovaca i goveda i sluga i sluškinja, te dade Avramu, i vrati mu Saru ženu njegovu. 15 I reče Avimeleh Avramu: Evo, zemlja ti je moja otvorena, živi slobodno gde ti je volja. 16 A Sari reče: Evo dao sam tvom bratu hiljadu srebrnika; gle, on ti je očima pokrivalo pred svima koji budu s tobom; i to sve da ti je za nauku. 17 I Avram se pomoli Bogu, i isceli Bog Avimeleha i ženu njegovu i sluškinje njegove, te rađahu. 18 Jer Gospod beše sasvim zatvorio svaku matericu u domu Avimelehovom radi Sare žene Avramove.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 20:12 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XVI, Chapters 29–32)

    … when the king rebuked Abraham for not saying she was his wife, and calling her his sister, he explained what he had been afraid of, and added this further, "And yet indeed she is my sister by the father's side, but not by the mother's; for she was Abraham's sister by his own father, and so near of kin.
