I was told that Ishmael is the forefather of the arabs - would you be able to tell me where I can that lineage connecting him to the arabs in the bible? Thankyou.
Hi Pete,
Go to the book of Genesis 21:8-21.....17:20...16:9-16.
The Bible dosent specified if Ihsmael is the father of the arabs, but acordently with the bible experts Ihsmael is the father of arabs, because he grow up in the desert. he got married with a egipcian women.
thank you.
