Exactly. If this isn't a lesson in trusting that God keeps His promises and that He usually doesn't work on our timetable and that He sees the whole picture and acts on the fact that He knows every aspect of any situation and we can't see twenty seconds into the future, then nothing is.

This one act of disobedience by Sarah and Abraham has resulted in horrendous tragedy and pain for millions of people. This story alone should convince everyone to live lives of obedience to God, but all of us are just like Sarah and Abraham.

AMEN to what you have said.

When I reflect on this tenth anniversary of the September 11th, 2001 attacks, I cannot help but think where all the conflict began,with Abraham, Sarah and Hagar, Issac and Ishmael. A teaching reminder to trust and wait on the Lord.

I would have to say, based on the word of God that yes, he committed adultery by having two wives:

I agree with this position GiovannaNicoletta. Also, for lurkers, it was Jacob with two wives and the wives's two maids that conceived the 12 tribes. One Father four mothers. It was not that happy a family life in the Bible record.

It's neat how God still used them all for his purposes!
