Abram's wife Sarai is barren, and God gives Abram an Egyptian maidservant named Hagar. Hagar conceives a son named Ishmael and flees to the wilderness after harsh treatment from Sarai. The angel of the Lord appears to him and orders her to return to Sarai and Abram as the Lord has heard her cries. God blesses Ishmael and promises him a multitude. The well where the angel appeared to Hagar is known as Beer Lahai Roi, meaning "you're the God who sees."
