<p> (Hebrew id. עֵשֶׂק, quarrel; Sept. and Vulg. translate Ἀδικία, calumnia, as if reading עשֶׁק ), a well (בְּאֵר ) containing a spring of water, which the herdsmen of [[Isaac]] dug in the valley of Gerar, and which received its name because the herdmen of [[Gerar]] quarreled הַתְעִשְׁקוּ, wrangled, Sept. ἠδίκησαν, Vulg. evasively, A.V. "strove;" but different from the וִיָּרַיבוּ of the preceding clause, ἐμαχήσαντο , jurgiun fuit, "strove") with him for the possession of it (Genesis 26:20). Isaac seems to have therefore relinquished it. It appears not to have been one of those which [[Abraham]] had previously dug (Genesis 26:18; the contest there was a question of title, here of possession). There are still several wells in this vicinity. (See [[Gerar]]). </p>
