In this chapter, Sarai asks her faithful servant's consent to use her as a surrogate (that, or forced her slave to get pregnant by her husband). After conceiving, Hagar's hormones kick in and she gets irritable. After getting permission from Abram, Sarai is abusive toward Hagar until she can't take it and leaves. The Lord shows up to convince Hagar to return to her master? Boss? Hagar sees the Lord, which I guess is fine and doesn't cause death. Hagar does what she's told even though God is planning on more pain and suffering for her son's descendants. I just hope that this wasn't a futile exercise resulting in more abuse, just to end with Hagar wandering the desert again. Notably, God doesn't talk to Sarai at any point and tell her to be nicer.
