The descendants of Ishmael will one day come into a position of blessing
Sauce?
I see where Hagar (Ishmael's mother) is told Ishmael will be a large nation:
“I will increase your descendants so much that they will be too numerous to count.” - Gen 16:9
"And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation - Gen 17:20
And I see where Ishmaels descendants will be a thorn in the side of basically everyone:
"He will be a wild donkey of a man;
his hand will be against everyone
and everyone’s hand against him,
and he will live in hostility
toward all his brothers." - Gen 16:12
But I don't see where Ishmaels descendants will come into more (future) blessing?
