Rashi · 1040–1105

Gen 21:11 · Douay-Rheims

“Abraham took this grievously for his son.”

On this verse:

“על אדות בנו ON ACCOUNT OF HIS SON — because he heard that he had taken to degenerate ways (Exodus Rabbah 1:1). The real meaning, however, is because she (Sarah) had told him to send him away.”
