Summary of Genesis 21: 14-21:
Abraham set Ismael and Hagar off one day, and they wandered the desert of Beersheba. When they ran out of water, Hagar left Ismael under a bush, and she went a bit away so she would not have to watch him die. Ismael began to cry, and God heard. An angel of God called to Hagar from heaven. He tells her that God will make Ismael a great nation. A well of water appears so they could drink. God was with Ismael as he grew up. He became an archer and got married.
