Hagar  

TheAngelSpeaksToHagar

• General Notes
  • Hagar was not Abram's wife, but the handmaid of Sarai, the wife of Abram.  To help her husband fulfill his destiny, Sarai offered her Egyptian handmaid Hagar to him as a concubine. Hagar became pregnant immediately, and began to despise her mistress. Sarai bitterly upbraided her husband, and Abram responded that she should do with her handmaid as she deemed best. Sarai's harsh treatment of Hagar forced the handmaid to flee to the desert, where she encountered an angel who announced that her children would be numerous and urged her to return to her mistress. After Hagar returned, she bore Abraham a son whom he named Ishmael.
