16:15 As stated earlier people gave names according to God's will, hopes, or by events that was or going to be.
16:16 Abram was 46 years old when Ishmael was born. This was the first accounted event of a wife allowing her husband to be with another woman.
Chp. 17
17:1 It would be over 50 years before God/Allah would appear to Abraham again.
17:5 Abraham name means a father of many nations. God (Allah) changed his name from Abram to Abraham. Many religions allow their members to change their names due to their religious beliefs and systems.
17:7 God tells Abraham that he promises that royalty will come from his seeds (children). God will be their God for many generations to come.
17:10 Abraham must promise to circumcise every boy of his offspring, or who live in the lands that God has given him.
17:15 So Sarai became Sarah.
17:20 Notice how God/Allah is revealing the future of Abraham's household. Later, we will learn that God was, God is, and God is yet to become.
17:27 We do know today that males who aren't circumcised must be more cautious when cleaning the penis.
Chp. 18
18:12 Sarah referred to Abraham as my Lord because men are the head of their household. Husbands are to rule their household with godly wisdom and love. Men are to be treated as a king within their own household. And women are the queens in their own households.
You may be saying well there is no opposite sex in my house. Can I be a king AND queen? No, you can only be you of one gender. Are you a king OR a queen? Than follow your job description: Set the rules for your household. Will your household believe in God, Jesus (Isa), and the Holy Spirit? Will you keep your house in order, godly order - God, Man, Woman, and child(ren). If you do not have the opposite sex in your household why not? What are you doing to find your king or queen? Ask yourself what a king or queen would do in your household; not in someone else's home. Are you liars, cheaters, or backbiters than you may have a social dysfunction that you need to personally address?
18:27 Abraham was explaining to God that he was only an earthly human what did he expect from him.
