Keeping the Air Clear of Conflict

Genesis 21: 22-34

22 - The unsaved watch us. They should see Jesus in us.

23 - Abimelech wants to be friends with Abraham and make a peace treaty with him.

24 - Abraham promises to be peaceful toward each other

25 Abraham brings up a problem between the two of them. Abimelech’s servants took avay one of Abraham’s wells.

26 - Abimelech says he did not know anything about this well.

27-32 - Abraham gives Abimelech extra presents of frendship to Abimelech

33-34 Abraham planted a grove of trees and worshiped the Lord there. From here on, the planting of groves was wicked since the people would worship idols instead of the One, True God. God wanted worship in the Tabernacle after it was built.

2 Kings 17:16 - idolatry happened in the groves
