This explains
why Abraham
did not take
Hagar back.
The later
tradition
(cf. e. g.
Pirke de R.
Eliezer xxx.)
identifies
Hagar with
Keturah
erroneously
as you will
find Jubilees
exposes
the Talmud
details as
wrong.

of Bethuel; and Bethuel was
the son of Mêlcâ, who was the
wife of Nahor, the brother of
Abraham. 11 And Abraham
took to himself a third wife,
and her name was Keturah,
from among the daughters
of his household servants, for
Hagar had died before Sarah.
12 And she bare him six sons,
Zimram, and Jokshan, and
Medan, and Midian, and
Ishbak, and Shuah, in the two
weeks of years. 13 And in the
sixth week, in the second year
thereof, Rebecca bare to Isaac
two sons, Jacob and Esau,
and Jacob was a smooth and
upright man, and Esau was
fierce, a man of the field, and
hairy, and Jacob dwelt in tents.
14 And the youths grew, and
Jacob learned to write; but
Esau did not learn, for he
was a man of the field and a
hunter, and he learnt war, and
all his deeds were fierce.
Abraham Loves Jacob
And Blesses Him (19:15-31)
Jacob was
to be the
founder of
the chosen
nation;
cf. 2:20.
15 And Abraham loved
Jacob, but Isaac loved Esau.
16 And Abraham saw the
deeds of Esau, and he knew
that in Jacob should his name
and seed be called; and he
called Rebecca and gave
commandment
regarding
Jacob, for he knew that she

(too) loved Jacob much more
than Esau. 17 And he said
unto her: “My daughter,
watch over my son Jacob, For
he shall be in my stead on the
earth, And for a blessing in the
midst of the children of men,
And for the glory of the whole
seed of Shem. 18 For I know
that Yahuah will choose him
to be a people for possession
unto Himself, above all
peoples that are upon the face
of the earth. 19 And behold,
Isaac my son loveth Esau more
than Jacob, but I see that thou
truly lovest Jacob. 20 Add
still further to thy kindness
to him, And let thine eyes be
upon him in love; For he will
be a blessing unto us on the
earth from henceforth unto all
generations of the earth.
21 Let thy hands be strong And
let thy heart rejoice in thy son
Jacob; For I have loved him far
beyond all my sons. He will be
blessed for ever, And his seed
will fill the whole earth. 22 If
a man can number the sand
of the earth, His seed also will
be numbered. 23 And all the
blessings wherewith Yahuah
hath blessed me and my seed
shall belong to Jacob and his
seed alway. 24 And in his seed
shall my name be blessed,
and the name of my fathers,
Shem, and Noah, and Enoch,

Note:
Abraham’s
seed is not
a land, it is a
people. One
possessing
the land does
not become
Abraham’s
seed. Israel
is a people
not a land.
As Gog takes
Israel, his
allies are not
Israel. In Ch.
8-9 mapping,
Gog is Britain
and West
and Central
Europe. They
conquered
the land in
1917 giving
it back to the
Pharisees.
That is not
Israel’s
seed but
Samaritan.
