Biblical Parallels Index – Bereshit 21
The Two Banishments of Hagar
It is difficult to understand the story of the banishment of Hagar and Yishmael in Bereshit 21 without comparing it to the parallel narrative about Hagar in Bereshit 16.
Tools
- Use the Tanakh Lab to compare the two stories. There are not as many linguistic parallels as one might have expected given the similar content of the stories. One surprising parallel is the repeated motif of "eyes" in both narratives.
Articles
- See Sarah's Treatment of Hagar for an analysis of the morality of Sarah’s actions in Bereshit 16.
- See Banishment of Hagar and Yishmael for analysis of the motivation and morality of Sarah’s actions in Bereshit 21.
