Commentary

And he went in unto Hagar, and she conceived,.... The formality of the marriage being over, he enjoyed her a s his wife, and she immediately conceived by him: and when she saw that she had conceived; when she perceived that she was with child: her mistress was despised in her eyes; she thought herself above her, and treated her as her inferior, with contempt, and reproached her for her barrenness, as Peninnah did Hannah, Sa1 1:6 ; and it was the more ungrateful, as it was at the motion of her mistress that she was given to Abram for wife.
