Genesis 25:1-4
Abraham's DeathThis section covers the last years of Abraham’s life. After Isaac’s marriage, Abraham lived quietly for thirty-five more years. There were no more special appearances from God or big tests for him. Even great people have ordinary days. Abraham’s final years were peaceful and not filled with dramatic events.v. 1-4: After Sarah died, Abraham married Keturah. He was lonely after losing Sarah and after Isaac’s marriage, so he took another wife, probably someone from his household. Through Keturah, Abraham had six more sons. This showed that God’s promise to make Abraham’s family large was coming true (Genesis 25:1-4 a). Even in old age, Abraham was blessed with strength and children, proving that God’s promises are stronger than natural limits. – – –
