CasonHOST
Through all the stories about Ishmael, there runs a schizophrenic streak.
CasonHOST
On the one hand, these tribesmen are viewed as intimately related to Israel.

On the other hand, these tales relate to the tension between Israelites and Ishmaelites, can be traced right back to the squabble of Isaac and Ishmael in Abraham's household.

So when he came to the Ishmaelite, to the Arab people, And he said to him, I want you to make a blessing.
Chaim WolosowHOST
You just had a good meal.
Chaim WolosowHOST
I want you to bless Hashem.
Chaim WolosowHOST
I don't want to bless Hashem.
Chaim WolosowHOST
When Avram pushed him a little bit, and Avram says, okay, then you're going to have to pay for the meal you just ate.
Chaim WolosowHOST
So even though it seems like, oh, he's not really interested in blessing, but the truth of the matter is, it takes away a little bit of the objection, and then that potential that even the Ishmaelite, this Arab has, for recognition for Hashem.
Chaim WolosowHOST
Because you see, Yishmael was teaching all, I mean, Abraham was teaching all the Ishmaelite about Hashem.
Israel HorowitzGUEST
That's something that works for all people.
Israel HorowitzGUEST
And even the idea of the Ishmaelites, which are the Arabs, the Muslims being spread across Israel actually is confirmed by the Torah because God says that Ishmael will be a wild man.
Israel HorowitzGUEST
So that's definitely true.
Israel HorowitzGUEST
And he will dwell among all of his brothers.
Pitts EvansHOST
And he said, I do have one request, that each of you give me an earring from your share of the plunder.
Pitts EvansHOST
It was the custom of the Ishmaelites to wear gold earrings.

They answered, We'll be glad to give them.
Pitts EvansHOST
So they spread out a garment, and each of them threw a ring from his plunder into it.

Amanda GraceGUEST
Joseph's own kind attempts to sell him.
Amanda GraceGUEST
Here come the Ishmaelite traders.
Amanda GraceGUEST
Joseph's brothers say, we can sell him and we can get rid of him.
Amanda GraceGUEST
They sell him to the Ishmaelites, right? Right.
Amanda GraceGUEST
Now, the Israelites really think they are, this is going to come in for 2028, Nito.
