Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 21. - And they digged another well (Isaac having yielded up the first), and strove for that also: - "The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water" (Proverbs 17:14) and he called the name of it Sitnah - "Contention" (from שָׂטָן, to lie in wait as an adversary; whence Satan); probably in Wady-es-Shutein, near Rehoboth (vide infra).
