in Gerar three weeks of
years. 13 And Abimelech
charged concerning him, and
concerning all that was his,
saying: “Any man that shall
touch him or aught that is
his shall surely die.” 14 And
Isaac waxed strong among
the Philistines, and he got
many possessions, oxen and
sheep and camels and asses
and a great household. 15
And he sowed in the land of
the Philistines and brought
in a hundred-fold, and Isaac
became exceedingly great,
and the Philistines envied him.
16 Now all the wells which
the servants of Abraham
had dug during the life of
Abraham, the Philistines
had stopped them after the
death of Abraham, and filled
them with earth. 17 And
Abimelech said unto Isaac:
“Go from us, for thou art
much mightier than we”; and
Isaac departed thence in the
first year of the seventh week,
and sojourned in the valleys
of Gerar. 18 And they digged
again the wells of water which
the servants of Abraham, his
father, had digged, and which
the Philistines had closed
after the death of Abraham
his father, and he called their
names as Abraham his father
had named them. 19 And the

servants of Isaac dug a well
in the valley, and found living
water, and the shepherds
of Gerar strove with the
shepherds of Isaac, saying:
“The water is ours “; and Isaac
called the name of the well
“Perversity,” because they had
been perverse with us. 20 And
they dug a second well, and
they strove for that also, and
he called its name “Enmity.”
And he arose from thence and
they digged another well, and
for that they strove not, and he
called the name of it “Room,”
and Isaac said: “Now Yahuah
hath made room for us, and
we have increased in the
land.”
21 And he went up from
thence to the Well of the
Oath in the first year of the
first week in the forty-fourth
jubilee.
22 And Yahuah appeared to
him that night, on the new
moon of the first month,
and said unto him: “I am
the Elohim of Abraham thy
father; fear not, for I am with
thee, and shall bless thee and
shall surely multiply thy seed
as the sand of the earth, for
the sake of Abraham my
servant.” 23 And he built an
altar there, which Abraham
his father had first built, and
he called upon the name of

YHWH,
Yahuah in
Hebrew.
Abraham,
Isaac and
Jacob knew
and used
the true
name of God
many times.
A doctrine
hiding the
name of
YHWH is of
Samaritan,
pagan origin
not the Bible.
