Genesis 20:1-18
This lesson is the account of the third major failure of Abraham. Sadly, it was a repeat of his first failure, when he purposely hid the truth that Sarah was his wife and not just his sister. If even a great man like Abraham (the "father of faith" and "friend of God") sins, we certainly know none of us are exempt! One of the reasons (among multitudes) we know the Bible is truly God-inspired is because it always speaks the truth about people, even "the best" of God's people. We read about Noah's drunkenness, Moses' temper, David's adultery, and Peter's denials.
We look at Abraham's iniquity, God's intervention, and King Abimelech's integrity and inquisition of Abraham and Sarah. In this account, we find the first healing miracle recorded in the Bible! Find out what it was and on whom it was performed!
