    When Isaac had been there a long time, Abimelech king of the Philistines looked down from the window and was surprised to see Isaac caressing his wife Rebekah.
38. Genesis 26:9
    Abimelech sent for Isaac and said, “So she is really your wife! How could you say, ‘She is my sister’?” Isaac replied, “Because I thought I might die on account of her.”
39. Genesis 26:10Referred to, not named

58. Genesis 26:32
    On that same day, Isaac’s servants came and told him about the well they had dug. “We have found water!” they told him.

65. Genesis 27:5
    Now Rebekah was listening to what Isaac told his son Esau. So when Esau went into the field to hunt game and bring it back,
66. Genesis 27:20
    But Isaac asked his son, “How did you ever find it so quickly, my son?” “Because the LORD your God brought it to me,” he replied.
67. Genesis 27:21
    Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come closer so I can touch you, my son. Are you really my son Esau, or not?”
68. Genesis 27:22
    So Jacob came close to his father Isaac, who touched him and said, “The voice is the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”
69. Genesis 27:23Referred to, not named
    Isaac did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau; so he blessed him.
70. Genesis 27:24Referred to, not named
    Again he asked, “Are you really my son Esau?” And he replied, “I am.”
71. Genesis 27:25Referred to, not named

    Then his father Isaac said to him, “Please come near and kiss me, my son.”

76. Genesis 27:33
    Isaac began to tremble violently and said, “Who was it, then, who hunted the game and brought it to me? Before you came in, I ate it all and blessed him—and indeed, he will be blessed!”
77. Genesis 27:37
    But Isaac answered Esau: “Look, I have made him your master and given him all his relatives as servants; I have sustained him with grain and new wine. What is left that I can do for you, my son?”
78. Genesis 27:39
    His father Isaac answered him: “Behold, your dwelling place shall be away from the richness of the land, away from the dew of heaven above.
79. Genesis 27:46
    Then Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am weary of my life because of these Hittite women. If Jacob takes a Hittite wife from among them, what good is my life?”
80. Genesis 28:1
    So Isaac called for Jacob and blessed him. “Do not take a wife from the Canaanite women,” he commanded.
81. Genesis 28:5
    So Isaac sent Jacob to Paddan-aram, to Laban son of Bethuel the Aramean, the brother of Rebekah, who was the mother of Jacob and Esau.
82. Genesis 28:6
    Now Esau learned that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him to Paddan-aram to take a wife there, commanding him, “Do not marry a Canaanite woman,”
83. Genesis 28:8
    And seeing that his father Isaac disapproved of the Canaanite women,
84. Genesis 28:13

    …and he drove all his livestock before him, along with all the possessions he had acquired in Paddan-aram, to go to his father Isaac in the land in Canaan.
86. Genesis 31:42
    If the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had not been with me, surely by now you would have sent me away empty-handed. But God has seen my affliction and the toil of my hands, and last night He rendered judgment.”
87. Genesis 31:53
    May the God of Abraham and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge between us.” So Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac.

95. Genesis 48:16
    …the angel who has redeemed me from all harm—may He bless these boys. And may they be called by my name and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac, and may they grow into a multitude upon the earth.”
