asawholeso isaacsquietcalm spirit is emp hasized in the present lesson there was nothing militant about his faith but it was real faith neverthe less- marked by tranquillity of soul and evenness of disposition in the face of jealousy- and oppositionrhe continued to bear witness tp the goodness of a covenantkeeping god although inclined to shun con troversy and moreready toyield to overbearing demands than to stand resolutely for what he knew to be his legitimate possessions while his name is linked over and over again with his father and his younger son as god declares him self to be the god of abraham isaac and jacob yet the lord never speaks of himself as in a singular sense the god of isaac this is the more remarkable when we remember that often he calls himself or is called the god of abraham andon other occasions the god of jacob he is designat ed as the fear of isaac gen 3142 53 that is the one whom isaac revered in chapter 2813 we read that the lord said i am the lord god of abraham thy father and the god of isaac but here again he links isaac with abraham and does not speak of him seoaraely as he does several times of jacob psa 4g 7 11 1147 this is indicative of the quiet uneventful character of isaacs life his was a genuine faith but he was content to wait and jo give place mo the restless philistines rather than to contend with them and so to assert his rights as we say in his old age when sight and physical strength were failing he allowed his sense of personal enjoyment to control him and was in measure sub servient to his more energetic wife who was determined s that her favorite soni jacob should not be i passed by but should receive the blessing of abraham t become heir of the promise however when isaac realized how liehad been de ceived he recognized the facfthat it was the will of god that jacob should s have this portion and so confirmed it afterward- despite the tears and pleadingvof esau verso by verse v t 2g19 isaapsservants dig

25 he buildedan altar 1 and pitched his tent there and there isaacs servants digged a well like his father isaac had his altar of worship and his pilgrims tent another well was opened and so provision was made for refresh- mentand sustenance it is a beauti ful picture of faith in exercise god was honoured as the smoke of sacrifices ascended from the altar and the tent was an abiding testi mony to a raith that could afford to trust and wait verse 26 abimelech went to him from gerar the philistine king accompanied by his chief advisers recognized the care of god oyer isaac so paid him a state visit in order to make a league or covenant with him that would guarantee there would be no inter ference with their possessions as isaac increased in riches and power verse 27 wherefore come ye to me seeing ye hate me and have sentme away it was a natural question after the recent experi ences isaac and his servants had passed through verse 28 we saw certainly that the lord was with thee let- us make a covenant with thee even a crafty worldling like abime lech realized god was watching over hisservantnlsaac and it would be better to have his favor than his enmity so he r proposed a league that would- ensure the peaceful possession of their lands and would guarantee the philistines against attack as isaac grew in wealth and power verse 29 thou art now the blessed of the lord protesting that in the past he and his people had done isaac nothing but good an assertion that wasfar from the truth abimelech pleaded for a pact between them acknowledging that the blessing of jehovah was upon and so peace assured at j east for a time so far as we are able to learn from scripture this pact continued unbroken untu the days of joshua when israel came up to take formal possession of their inheritance verse 32 the same day isaacs servants came and said we have found water this well was hailed as a good omen and a memorial of the covenant sealed by an oath between isaac and abime lech verse 33 he called it shebah that is an oath so this incident gave its name to the city beer- sheba the well of the oath the perpetual reminder of the pact entered into between these two parties the heart of the lesson we are told in the book of pro verbs chap 167 that when a mans ways please the lord he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him this was exempli fied long before that book was written in thecase of isaac and the philistines so graciously had the patriarch behaved himself in spite of the jealousy and quarrelsome ness of the philistines that abime lech recognized the piety and good will of isaac and- valued his friend ship on the part of the head of the hebrew group there was a readi- ness toenter into a pact of peace rather than to provoke needless and open opposition the time had not yet come when the people descended from isaac and abraham were to dispossess the nations of canaan because of their wicked ness so isaac could conscientious ly make a covenant with abimelech in order to foster kindly relations between the two groups farming theskdays these are busy days for the fai mers an observer in the lindsay post says the farmers are asing
