"The Book of Genesis tells us that Abraham married another woman named Cura after Sarah, his beloved wife, died. As it is written in Genesis 25, Abraham had taken another wife whose name was Cura (Genesis 25:1-2). We will try to find out what really drove Abraham to marry another woman and did he marry her or did she have a concubine. "Welcome, dear viewers, to Bible Stories, where we delve into the rich narratives and profound lessons found in the Scriptures. Today, we explored the intriguing story of Abraham's third wife, Keturah, and her descendants. The Bible unfolds a tapestry of characters and events that continue to inspire and offer insights into our own lives. Before we conclude, we encourage you to subscribe to our channel for more in-depth explorations of biblical stories. Cura is explicitly described as Abraham's concubine in the Book of Deuteronomy. The sons born to Cura, Abraham's concubine, were Zimran, Jshin, Madon, Midian, Ishak, and Shua. The sons of Jshin were Sheba and Danan (1 Chronicles 1:32). Their names stand for groups of people who lived in the land of Israel and the Arabian Peninsula. Many commentators argue about whether Cura is Hagar or another woman. According to the Book of Chronicles, it's clear that Cura and Hagar were concubines of Abraham. Looking at the family tree of Abraham and Cura and considering what's in the Book of Chronicles, the children of Cura were involved in trading goods like spices and gold internationally. Even though the Bible doesn't say where Cura came from, it gives details about Abraham's other wives like Sarah, Abraham's brother's daughter, and Hagar, the Egyptian woman. Cura, on the other hand, stays quiet in the Bible, and there's no detailed description of her. Whether Cura is Hagar or not, the argument ends with the words in Genesis 25: "But while he was still living, he gave gifts to the sons of his concubines" (Genesis 25:6). It appears Abraham had more than one concubine, Hagar and Cura, as indicated by the plural word 'concubines.' There are several interpretations of why Abraham married another wife after Sarah died and why he had so many children with her. Let's return for a moment to the verse where Abraham distributes the blessings and gifts to his sons to understand the first interpretation. Abraham left everything he owned to Isaac, but while he was still living, he gave gifts to the sons of his concubines and sent them away from his son Isaac to the land of the East (Genesis 25:5-6). According to the scriptures, all the property was given to Isaac only after the sons of Abraham and Keturah were born. Next, the sons of Cura were given gifts, and Abraham sent them to wander. What is the reason for Abraham not giving everything he owned to Isaac before Cura's child was born? Are there any reasons for the wait? #Abraham's #Keturah #Abraham'sdescendants
