Genesis 20:11 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

I thought, Surely the fear of God is not in this place, and they will slay me There are many places and persons that have more of the fear of God in them than we think they have; perhaps they are not called by our name, they do not wear our badges, they do not tie themselves to that which we have an opinion of; and therefore we conclude they have not the fear of God in their hearts!

Genesis 20:11

11 And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife's sake.
