except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. If you eat its fruit, you are sure to die."
When the palace officials saw her, they sang her praises to Pharaoh, their king, and Sarai was taken into his palace.
But the Lord sent terrible plagues upon Pharaoh and his household because of Sarai, Abram's wife.
Abraham moved south to the Negev and lived for a while between Kadesh and Shur, and then he moved on to Gerar. While living there as a foreigner,
Abraham introduced his wife, Sarah, by saying, "She is my sister." So King Abimelech of Gerar sent for Sarah and had her brought to him at his palace.
But that night God came to Abimelech in a dream and told him, "You are a dead man, for that woman you have taken is already married!"
But Abimelech had not slept with her yet, so he said, "Lord, will you destroy an innocent nation?
Didn't Abraham tell me, ‘She is my sister'? And she herself said, ‘Yes, he is my brother.' I acted in complete innocence! My hands are clean."
In the dream God responded, "Yes, I know you are innocent. That's why I kept you from sinning against me, and why I did not let you touch her.
Then Abimelech called for Abraham. "What have you done to us?" he demanded. "What crime have I committed that deserves treatment like this, making me and my kingdom guilty of this great sin? No one should ever do what you have done!
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Sanctify yourselves therefore,.... By abstaining from such impious and idolatrous practices, and separating themselves from all that gave into them, as well as by observing the holy commandments of the Lord; otherwise internal sanctification is not the work of man, but of the Lord himself, as in Leviticus 20:8:
and be ye holy; or a separate people from all others in worship and conversation:
for I [am] the Lord your God; who is a holy God, and therefore it became them to be holy, in imitation of him, Leviticus 19:2.
