And it came to pass, after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac, etc.] Yet more and more, both with spiritual and temporal blessings; showing hereby, that, though Abraham was dead, he was not unmindful of his covenant, which should be established with Isaac, (<011719>Genesis 17:19 22:17,18): and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahairoi; which was near the wilderness of Beersheba and Paran, where Ishmael dwelt; so that they were not far from one another, (see <011614>Genesis 16:14 21:14,21).
