Another fault of the Philistines you meet with. Gen. 26.19,1 20, 21. Isaac digged a Well in the valley, and found there a fountain of living water: that is, such as did run with a full and constant stream,2 And the Shepherds of Gerar contended for it with Isaacs Shepherds, saying, the water is ours. Wherefore Isaac called the name of it Hezek, or strife, because they strove with him. Then they digged another Well, and they strove for that also, and he called the name of it Sitnah, which signifieth hatred or enmity, because he saw that they contended with him now, not for need of the water, ⟨p. 38⟩but out of mere hatred, because they were enemies and adversaries to him, and were grieved at his welfare.
