Abraham Bastard Concubine Desert Expelled Hagar Insists Isaac Ishmael Packing Sara Testament Treats Saras
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image from the annals of religious history depicts the poignant moment of Hagar and Ishmael's expulsion from Abraham's household, as recounted in the Old Testament of the Bible. According to the biblical narrative, Sarah, the wife of Abraham, grew jealous of Hagar, her husband's concubine and the mother of Ishmael, due to her son Isaac's ill-treatment at the hands of Ishmael. Unable to bear the situation any longer, Sarah demanded that Hagar and her son be sent away. In this powerful photograph, Hagar and Ishmael are shown in the desolate expanse of the desert, their faces etched with sorrow and determination as they embark on their journey into the unknown. The barren landscape mirrors their uncertain future, while the harsh sun casts an otherworldly glow over the scene. The story of Hagar and Ishmael's expulsion is a significant one in both religious and historical contexts. It marks the beginning of the Islamic and Jewish traditions, as Ishmael goes on to become the ancestor of the Arab people, and Hagar is revered as the mother of the Prophet Ishmael in Islam. This image, from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a haunting and evocative glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of faith, family, and the complexities of human relationships. The desolate beauty of the desert landscape serves as a poignant reminder of the human capacity for both love and conflict, and the enduring power of faith to shape our understanding of the world around us.
