Isaac and God’s Covenant Reaffirmed
Genesis 26:1-6
1
Now there was another famine in the land, subsequent to the one that had occurred in Abraham’s time. And Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Philistines at Gerar.
2
The LORD appeared to Isaac and said, “Do not go down to Egypt. Settle in the land where I tell you.
3
Stay in this land as a foreigner, and I will be with you and bless you. For I will give all these lands to you and your offspring, and I will confirm the oath that I swore to your father Abraham.
4
I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky, and I will give them all these lands, and through your offspring all nations of the earth will be blessed,
5
because Abraham listened to My voice and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws.”
6
So Isaac settled in Gerar.
