16:11Then the Lord’s angel said to her,
“You are now32 pregnant
and are about to give birth33 to a son.
You are to name him Ishmael,34
for the Lord has heard your painful groans.35
Footnotes
- 32 The particle הִנֵּה (hinneh) focuses on her immediate situation: “Here you are pregnant.”
- 33 The active participle refers here to something that is about to happen.
- 34 The name Ishmael consists of the imperfect or jussive form of the Hebrew verb with the theophoric element added as the subject. It means “God hears” or “may God hear.”
- 35 Heb “affliction,” which must refer here to Hagar’s painful groans of anguish. This clause gives the explanation of the name Ishmael, using a wordplay. Ishmael’s name will be a reminder that “God hears” Hagar’s painful cries.
