10.11.26

The Foundation of the World:
“Like Father, Like Son”
Genesis 26
  1. In verses 1-11, what does Isaac do differently than his father? What does he do the same? What does this teach us about the power of parenting?
  2. Where did Isaac’s provision come from? (Verses 12, 28, and 29). How does the Bible teach us to think about material prosperity? Read 1 Timothy 6:17-19 and discuss.
  3. How does Isaac respond to God’s presence and promises in verse 25? How should we respond to what God has given us?
  4. Why is it significant that Abraham and Isaac make peace treaties with Abimelech? Consider the end of verse 4 as well as Isaiah 2:2-3. How do we seek to bring God’s blessing to the nations?
