  Abimelech - LoveToKnow 1911
Of a more primitive character, however, is another parallel story of Abraham at the court of Pharaoh, king of Egypt (xii.
22 -34, time of Abraham), notably a covenant with Abimelech at Beer-sheba (whence the name is explained "well of the oath"); (see Abraham).
It is usual to regard Abimelech's reign as the first attempt to establish a monarchy in Israel, but the story is mainly that of the rivalries of a half-developed petty state, and of the ingratitude of a community towards the descendants of its deliverer.
