The Lord Will

Genesis 20:13

“And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father’s house, that I said unto her, This is thy kindness which thou shalt shew unto me; at every place whither we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.”

KJV

Read in Genesis 20

Meaning

Abraham reveals that the brother-sister presentation had been an ongoing agreement used during their travels.

Read carefully

The existence of an established agreement does not by itself make the strategy just, nor does it prove equal freedom or risk for both parties.

Reflection

Long-standing habits deserve examination when they repeatedly transfer danger or moral cost onto other people.
