She is most notably recognized as the mother of Ishmael, Abraham's first son. In the New Testament, Hagar is used allegorically by the Apostle Paul to represent the old covenant of the Law given at Mount Sinai.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Hagar was an Egyptian servant in the household of Abraham and Sarah. Due to Sarah's barrenness, she gave Hagar to Abraham as a concubine to bear a child. This was a common practice in ancient Near Eastern cultures to ensure an heir. Hagar's account is significant in the Abrahamic faiths, as she is considered the matriarch of the Ishmaelites. Her narrative highlights themes of faith, promise, and God's providence.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of Hebrew origin <a href="/hebrew/1904.htm">Hagar</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>Hagar, a concubine of Abraham<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Hagar (2).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 28: Ἄγαρ</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Ἄγαρ</span></span> (<span class="manuref">WH</span> <span class="greek2">Ἅγάρ</span> (see their Introductory § 408)), <span class="greek2">ἡ</span>, indeclinable, (in <span class="abbreviation">Josephus</span>, <span class="greek2">Ἀγάρα</span>, <span class="greek2">(ης</span>), <span class="hebrew">הָגָר</span> (flight), <span class="accented">Hagar,</span> a bondmaid of Abraham, and by him the mother of Ishmael (<a href="/interlinear/genesis/16.htm">Genesis 16</a>): <a href="/interlinear/galatians/4-24.htm">Galatians 4:24</a> (<BIBLE/VERSE_ONLY:Galatians 4:25> <span class="manuref">L</span> text <span class="manuref">T</span> omit; <span class="manuref">Tr</span> brackets).
