Strife » Instances of » Isaac's and those of gerar
The herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with the herdsmen of Isaac. They said: The water is ours! So he named the well Esek, because they argued with him. They dug another well. And they quarreled over that one too. So Isaac named it Sitnah (Accusation). He moved on from there and dug another well. They did not quarrel over this one. So he named it Rehoboth (Roomy). He said: Now Jehovah has made room for us. We will prosper in this land.
