I just learned that Phyllis Trible passed away and am so sad! Her book Texts of Terror has been so influential to me and her impact on Biblical Studies can’t be understated. She will be missed!

"Abraham Dismissing Hagar and Ishmael" by Nicolaes Maes depicts the story where Hagar and Ishmael are sent to the wilderness. It's a tragic tale that's often glossed over because of the positive light Abraham and Sarah are seen in, but should this tarnish people's view of them?
