Genesis 26:6 meaning and explanation
So Isaac settled in Gerar.
Genesis 26:6, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Isaac has just heard God tell him not to go down to Egypt but to stay in the land, with the promise that God will be with him and confirm the oath sworn to Abraham. This short sentence records his obedience: he settles in Gerar, a Philistine town in the Negev, as a resident foreigner rather than a landowner.
