WORD Research this...Genesis 21
- 1 And the Lord visited Sara, as he had promised: and fulfilled what he had spoken.
- 2 And she conceived and bore a son in her old age, at the time that God had foretold her.
- 3 And Abraham called the name of his son, whom Sara bore him, Isaac.
- 4 And he circumcised him the eighth day, as God had commanded him,
- 5 When he was a hundred years old: for at this age of his father, was Isaac born.
- 6 And Sara said: God hath made a laughter for me: whosoever shall hear of it will laugh with me.
- 7 And again she said: Who would believe that Abraham should hear that Sara gave suck to a son, whom she bore to him in his old age?
- 8 And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast on the day of his weaning.
- 9 And when Sara had seen the son of Agar, the Egyptian, playing with Isaac, her son, she said to Abraham:
- 10 Cast out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with my son Isaac.
- 11 Abraham took this grievously for his son.
- 12 And God said to him: Let it not seem grievous to thee for the boy, and for thy bondwoman: in all that Sara hath said to thee, hearken to her voice: for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
- 13 But I will make the son also of the bondwoman a great nation, because he is thy seed.
- 14 So Abraham rose up in the morning, and taking bread and a bottle of water, put it upon her shoulder, and delivered the boy, and sent her away. And she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Bersabee.
- 15 And when the water in the bottle was spent, she cast the boy under one of the trees that were there.
- 16 And she went her way, and sat over against him a great way off, as far as a bow can carry, for she said: I will not see the boy die: and sitting over against, she lifted up her voice and wept.
- 17 And God heard the voice of the boy: and an angel of God called to Agar from heaven, saying: What art thou doing, Agar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the boy, from the place wherein he is.
- 18 Arise, take up the boy, and hold him by the hand, for I will make him a great nation.
- 19 And God opened her eyes: and she saw a well of water, and went and filled the bottle, and gave the boy to drink.
- 20 And God was with him: and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became a young man, an archer.
- 21 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Pharan, and his mother took a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.
- 22 At the same time Abimelech, and Phicol the general of his army, said to Abraham: God is with thee in all that thou dost.
- 23 Swear therefore by God, that thou wilt not hurt me, nor my posterity, nor my stock: but according to the kindness that I have done to thee, thou shalt do to me, and to the land wherein thou hast lived a stranger.
- 24 And Abraham said: I will swear.
- 25 And he reproved Abimelech for a well of water, which his servants had taken away by force.
- 26 And Abimelech answered: I knew not who did this thing: and thou didst not tell me, and I heard not of it till today.
- 27 Then Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech: and both of them made a league.
- 28 And Abraham set apart seven ewelambs of the flock.
- 29 And Abimelech said to him: What mean these seven ewelambs which thou hast set apart?
- 30 But he said: Thou shalt take seven ewelambs at my hand: that they may be a testimony for me, that I dug this well.
- 31 Therefore that place was called Bersabee; because there both of them did swear.
- 32 And they made a league for the well of oath.
- 33 And Abimelech and Phicol, the general of his army, arose and returned to the land of the Palestines. But Abraham planted a grove in Bersabee, and there called upon the name of the Lord God eternal.
- 34 And he was a sojourner in the land of the Palestines many days.

Basic Hash Usage Explained
At getBible, we've established a robust system to keep our API synchronized with the Crosswire project's modules. Let me explain how this integration works in simple terms.
We source our Bible text directly from the Crosswire modules. To monitor any updates, we generate "hash values" for each chapter, book, and translation. These hash values serve as unique identifiers that change only when the underlying content changes, thereby ensuring a tight integration between getBible and the Crosswire modules.
Every month, an automated process runs for approximately three hours. During this window, we fetch the latest Bible text from the Crosswire modules. Subsequently, we compare the new hash values and the text with the previous ones. Any detected changes trigger updates to both our official getBible hash repository and the Bible API for all affected translations. This system has been operating seamlessly for several years.
Once the updates are complete, any application utilizing our Bible API should monitor the hash values at the chapter, book, or translation level. Spotting a change in these values indicates that they should update their respective systems.
Hash values can change due to various reasons, including textual corrections like adding omitted verses, rectifying spelling errors, or addressing any discrepancies flagged by the publishers maintaining the modules at Crosswire.
The Crosswire initiative, also known as the SWORD Project, is the "source of truth" for getBible. Any modifications in the Crosswire modules get reflected in our API within days, ensuring our users access the most precise and current Bible text. We pledge to uphold this standard as long as getBible exists and our build scripts remain operational.
We're united in our mission to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the Bible text. If you have questions or require additional information, please use our support system. We're here to assist and will respond promptly.
Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of the getBible community.
