Genesis 25:2
"Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah."
Key Reflection
In Genesis 25:2, Abraham marries Keturah, a step towards understanding his life after Sarah's passing and the division of his wealth among Isaac. This action reflects both practical considerations—ensuring the continuation of his family line—and broader cultural norms regarding polygamy in ancient Near Eastern society, where multiple wives were common for leaders to secure their lineage and influence.
