Context

These seven verses compose one of the ten major sections whose beginnings are marked by the phrase these are the family records of . . .1 As is customary in Genesis, the narrative first discusses the lines of minor figures before moving on to longer sections for the major characters in the overall storyline. Therefore, Ishmael’s descendants are discussed before returning to the main narrative concerning Isaac and his sons (25:19 – 35:29).
