And Abraham said, because I thought,Surely the FEAR of God is not in this place;and they will slay me for my wife’s sake. Genesis 20:11
At first glance we physically see FEAR once but the underlying motive of Abraham is Fear. Plain and simple he didn’t want to die! He FEARED the people’s reaction to him…
Just one little thought though.
Did Abraham not FEAR GoD enough either? He clearly didn’t have a qualms about adultery or lying!
