Abraham (known as Abram earlier in his life) was the father of Isaac and Ishmael. Isaac was born from his wife, Sarah, and Ishmael was born from his concubine, Hagar. Ishmael was 14 years older than Isaac.
Isaac and Ismael are the sons of Abraham. The descendants of Isaac are the Jewish people. The descendants of Ishmael are the Muslim people.
In Islamic tradition, Ishmael is considered to be older than Isaac. Ishmael was born to Abraham and Hagar, while Isaac was born to Abraham and Sarah. Isaac is considered to be the ancestor of the Israelites, while Ishmael is considered to be the ancestor of the Arabs.
Reuel is from Isaac. He was the son of Esau, who was Isaac's son.
------------------------ We only know what we have in the Bible. There are good grounds for believing that the story of Isaac and Ishmael is not historically true, but if we accept the biblical account (and the later Islamic tradition) then we accept that Isaac and Ishmael were brothers.
Rivalry between Isaac and Ishmael has persisted through the centuries in the antagonisms between Jews and Arabs.

Hagar and Ishmael were sent away because of tensions between Hagar, the mother of Ishmael, and Sarah, Abraham's wife, after the birth of Isaac. Sarah felt threatened by Ishmael's presence and demanded that Abraham send them away to ensure that Isaac would inherit his lineage without competition. God reassured Abraham about the situation, instructing him to listen to Sarah, promising that Ishmael would also become a great nation.
Isaac was the father of the Jews. Ishmael was the father of the Arabs. Both Ishmael and Isaac were sons of Abraham. See Genesis ch.16, 17 and 21.
Arabs and Jews consider themselves descended from Abraham's sons Ishmael and Isaac respectively. Abraham aggressively kicked his maidservant Hagar and her son Ishmael out of the house in order for his son Isaac (born of his wife Sarah) to have primary attention. Jews and Christians assert that Abraham had a more special relationship with Isaac, taking him up a mountain in an attempt to sacrifice him. Muslims allege the same story, but with Ishmael. So, many claim that Jews and Arabs have a sibling rivalry of sorts coming from this moment. However, both the Bible and Qur'an make it very clear that after the halted sacrifice, Ishmael and Isaac actually spent a good deal of time together and remained on good terms. In fact, Isaac's son Esau married one of Ishmael's daughters.
Not particularly. Ishmael mocked Isaac, while Esau despised his birthright and was ungodly.
Abraham had two sons Isaac and Ishmael.
