Sister-wife narratives edit

Each of these three stories seem to mirror one another, however each of them emphasize a different point and only share a motif. Genesis 10:12-20 emphasizes the unforgiving wrath upon the adulterer without considering the possibility that Abram was at fault. In Genesis 20:1-6, Yahweh tackles the issue of of inconsideration when He enters Abimelech's dreams and doesn't allow the adultery to occur. In Genesis 26:1-33, the emphasis is behind the argument that the nations may bring peace or famine upon themselves depending on their relations with Israel, since Israel is the holy nation.
