Genesis 21:33
“And Abraham planted a grove in Beer–sheba, and called there on the name of the Lord, the everlasting God.”
KJV
Read in Genesis 21Meaning
Planting and worship mark Beersheba as a place of settled presence and invocation of God after the treaty episode.
Read carefully
The title 'Everlasting God' speaks about God's enduring identity; the verse does not convert Abraham's worship into a modern territorial claim.
Reflection
The narrative closes public negotiation with worship, placing ordinary settlement and long-term residence within a larger awareness of God.
