Oh, dude, like, back in the day, Abraham was married to Sarah, right? But then, like, they couldn't have kids, so Sarah was like, "Yo, Abraham, take my maid Hagar as your second wife and have kids with her." So, like, Hagar had a son with Abraham, and that's how Ishmael came into the picture. It's like a whole soap Opera situation, but, hey, that's how it went down.
What else can I help you with?
Whom did Abraham love - Sarah or Hagar?
Abraham loved Sarah because she was his wife. Abraham loved Hagar because of Ishmael. So Abraham loved both. That is why it was very difficult to choose between them if there had been no Divine intervention.
What is the nature of the relationship between Sarah and hagar?
Initially, their relationship is probably alright. Hagar is one of Sarah's slaves, and Sarah choose her to be a mistress for Abraham. I kind of understand the legal implications of this. In a worldly sense, the important thing was that Abraham have an heir. Because of Sarah's lack of faith in God to do as he had promised, or perhaps considering that she wasn't the one who would bear Abraham the promised son, she decided Hagar could bear a child for Abraham in her name. As soon as Hagar conceives however, animosity develops between the two women, as Hagar "despises" Sarah. (Genesis 16:4) There must be some cultural implications that I'm missing here, because I don't really understand why Hagar would despise Sarah... perhaps because her son wouldn't be her own, but would be Sarah's son by law? An interesting question that is definitely worth looking into.
