This might indicate that in the long term, Yishmael did not harbor extensive ill will towards either his father or half-brother. Interestingly, the midrash presents Yitzchak as being the one to orchestrate a reconciliation of the family, having him bring Hagar (identified by the midrash with Keturah) to remarry his father after Sarah's death. [For elaboration, see Avraham's Many Wives.] Though the Midrash does not mention Yishmael, it might suggest that he, too, renewed his relationship with the family.
