Wells » Were a frequent cause of strife
Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.
They dug another well, and they argued over that, also. He called its name Sitnah. He left that place, and dug another well. They didn't argue over that one. He called it Rehoboth. He said, "For now Yahweh has made room for us, and we will be fruitful in the land."
