Congratulations you’re a father Abraham!
Break out that cake and ice cream you should be proud of the son born to you as G-d promised from the free woman Sarah and not the bondwoman Hagar from Egypt. (Genesis 15:4) And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.
(Psalms 127:1-5)
Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.
It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.
Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.
(Genesis 18:1)
And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;
(Genesis 18:2)
And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground,
(Genesis 18:3)
And said, My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant:
(Genesis 18:4)
Let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree:
(Genesis 18:5)
And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.
(Genesis 18:6)
And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth.
(Genesis 18:7)
And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetcht a calf tender and good, and gave it unto a young man; and he hasted to dress it.
(Genesis 18:8)
And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat.
(Genesis 18:9)
And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.
(Genesis 18:10)
And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him.
(Genesis 18:11)
Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age; and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.
(Genesis 18:12)
Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?
(Genesis 18:13)
And the LORD said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old?
(Genesis 18:14)
Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.
(Genesis 18:15)
Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.
(Genesis 18:16)
And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.
(Genesis 18:17)
And the LORD said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;
(Genesis 18:18)
Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
(Genesis 18:19)
For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.
(Genesis 18:20)
And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;
(Genesis 18:21)
I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will know.
(Genesis 18:22)
And the men turned their faces from thence, and went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before the LORD.
(Genesis 18:23)
And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?
(Genesis 18:24)
Peradventure there be fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are therein?
(Genesis 18:25)
That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
(Genesis 18:26)
And the LORD said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes.
(Genesis 18:27)
And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord, which am but dust and ashes:
(Genesis 18:28)
Peradventure there shall lack five of the fifty righteous: wilt thou destroy all the city for lack of five? And he said, If I find there forty and five, I will not destroy it.
(Genesis 18:29)
And he spake unto him yet again, and said, Peradventure there shall be forty found there. And he said, I will not do it for forty’s sake.
(Genesis 18:30)
And he said unto him, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak: Peradventure there shall thirty be found there. And he said, I will not do it, if I find thirty there.
(Genesis 18:31)
And he said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord: Peradventure there shall be twenty found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for twenty’s sake.
(Genesis 18:32)
And he said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for ten’s sake.
(Genesis 18:33)
And the LORD went his way, as soon as he had left communing with Abraham: and Abraham returned unto his place.
