MEDITATION
Genesis 26:30-33
30 So he made them a feast, and they ate and drank.
31 Then they arose early in the morning and swore an oath with one another; and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.
32 It came to pass the same day that Isaac’s servants came and told him about the well which they had dug, and said to him, “We have found water.”
33 So he called it Shebah. Therefore the name of the city is Beersheba to this day.

沉思
《创世记 26:30-33》
30 以撒就为他们设摆筵席,他们便吃了喝了。
31 他们清早起来彼此起誓。以撒打发他们走,他们就平平安安地离开他走了。
32 那一天,以撒的仆人来,将挖井的事告诉他,说:“我们得了水了。”33 他就给那井起名叫示巴。因此那城叫做别是巴,直到今日。
