Genesis 21: 1-3 Then God did as he had promised, and Sarah became pregnant and gave Abraham a baby son in his old age, at the time God had said; and Abraham named him Isaac (meaning "Laughter!") Genesis 25: 19-26 This is the story of Isaac's children: Isaac was forty years old when he married Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean from Paddam-aram, sister of Laban. Isaac pleaded with Jehovah to give Rebekah a child, for even after many years of marriage she had no chldren. Then at last she became pregnant. And it seemed as though children were fighting each other inside her! "I can't endure this," she exclaimed. So she asked the Lord about it. And he told her, "The sons in your womb shal become two rival nations. One will be stronger than the other; and the older shall be a servant of the younger!" And sure enough, she had twins. the first was born so covered with reddish hair that one would think he was wearing a fur coat! So they called him "Esau,". Then the other twin was born with his hand on Esau's heel! So they called him Jacob (Meaning "Grabber"). Isaac was sixty years old when the twins were born. Genesis 24:24 "My father is Bethuel, the son of Micah, the wife of Nahor," she replied. Genesis 25:20 Isaac was forthy years old when he married Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean from Paddam-aram, sister of Laban.
