This well known Torah passage reminds us every time what we are dealing with. No less than the Almighty Himself told us exactly what this nation would be. And they are proving it every day.

[Red Badger]

But he is still of the seed of Abraham and has been blessed accordingly and should be treated as such..............

[Celtic Conservative]

Um. No.

[KitJ]

I sincerely hope you have had a meaningful Yom Kippur my FRiend.

I can offer some verses and stories from the New Testament about where things are and where they’re going. If you’re interested.

;)

Shalom.

...Rabbi Shlomo ben Yitzchak, known as Rashi (11th century France), the greatest and most studied of all Jewish Bible commentators, comments that the fact that Isaac, the younger son, is mentioned before Ishmael, the elder, implies that Ishmael gave precedence to Isaac as Abraham’s primary son. This is viewed as evidence that Ishmael repented...

You too can be a wild ass of a man! Results may vary.

He is blessed in numbers but is still a wild ass.

[Red Badger]

As was my brother. He was a total ass until his drug addiction killed him, but he was still my brother...............

[No name given]

True.

[No name given]

Sadly.

[TheThirdRuffian]

Genesis 25 or so fills it in “and lived in hostility toward all his kinsmen” (or something close; going by memory here).

That said, the most righteous “normal” guy in the OT was Job, or at least most righteous at that particular time.

Job was very clearly an Ishmaelite as his daughters all had Arab names.

[Uncle Miltie]

My condolences on the passing of your brother.

In spite of it all, with some of which I’m quite familiar.

[OKSooner]

Says who?

[right way right]

Abrahams one bad idea.

[Red Badger]

Thank you, but he’s been dead many years and he made his life choices at an early age.

While I was not surprised at his death, I was surprised that it was the drugs and not somebody killing him.

He was that kind of person, a total ass and he got into many drunk fights............

[Jan_Sobieski]

…and Esau married Ishmael’s Daughter. Islam originated in Petra (Edom), until Muslims were chased out by Umayyads in Damascus. The Edomite-Ishmaelite Muslims were chased down to Mecca and kept their meteorite of worship 🕋

[Red Badger]

As Jesus was dying on the cross He asked forgiveness for those that were killing him..............

[dznutz]

“his hand will be against everyone and everyone’s hand against him, and he will live in hostility toward all his brothers.“

[Tell It Right]

One possibility about Job in the Bible is that he was the guy in Genesis called Jobab. His lineage in Genesis 10 is Noah-->Shem-->Eber-->Joktan-->Jobab. That's just a possibility. And he wouldn't be the first person who had a name that was slightly different across books of the Bible.

Jacob wagered his donkey, he did not bet his ass.
