Description: Rabbinic commentary on some of the questions raised by the story of Sarah's expulsion of her rival.
Rabbis-Notebook - Vayera - Torah.org Yishmael & Hagar: A Perspective Following the birth of Yitzchak the Torah relates the story of Yishmael's expulsion from the house of Avraham. Initiated by Sarah's concerns over the negative influence that Yishmael was exerting over Yitzchak, Avraham was at first troubled by Sarah's insistence on chasing Yishmael from their home. However, G-d instructed Avraham, "Do everything that Sarah tells you." (21:12) So, Avraham sent Yishmael and Hagar out into the desert with nothing more than bread and water.
