There definitely is a message here about not doing what God wants. Abraham was impatient, had an out of wedlock child with his servant, and she bore him "A wild ass of a man" according to scripture.

???? I am not sure why you are confused, other than you have not heard of the scripture recorded in the Book of Genesis. You posted this previously:

"You're a racist and an anti-semite" Today people throw out these terms way too loosely, imho. And technically aren't the palestinians semites?

Since the question was regarding what constituted Semetic, I went back to the origin of Abraham.

Genesis 16

The particular passage "wild ass of a man" refers to Ishmael, the father of all Arabs.

He will be a wild ass of a man;
his hand will be against everyone
and everyone's hand against him,
and he will live in hostility
toward all his brothers."

Genesis 16:12
