Abimelech Abim'elech Abimelech's Abraham's Barren Closed Fast Females Household Kept Restrained Restraining Sarah Tight Wife Womb Wombs Women
20:18 For the LORD {p} had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham's wife.
(p) Had taken away from them the gift of conceiving.
20:14-18 We often trouble ourselves, and even are led into temptation and sin, by groundless suspicions; and find the fear of God where we expected it not. Agreements to deceive generally end in shame and sorrow; and restraints from sin, though by suffering, should be thankfully acknowledged. Though the Lord rebuke, yet he will pardon and deliver his people, and he will give them favour in the sight of those with whom they sojourn; and overrule their infirmities, when they are humbled for them, so that they shall prove useful to themselves and others.
