00:10I failed you, Abram.
00:12No.
00:13Your bloodline ends with me.
00:15Previously, on The Faithful.
00:17God spoke to me.
00:18Go forth, he said.
00:20To a land that I will show you.
00:22He's going to give us children, Sarai.
00:25Abram's God did not bring you out of Iran to not give you a child.
00:28We did what you asked, and nothing.
00:32Hey, girl, I want you to have Abram's child on my behalf.
00:35The boy.
00:38The son.
00:45What shall we name him?
00:48Something from the sagas, maybe.
00:51Enoch?
00:54There's plenty of time to decide.
00:59I missed having you in our bed, husband.
01:03I missed you too, my beloved.
01:17What's it?
01:18I felt him.
01:20Are you lying?
01:22Yeah.
01:26I felt him shaking.
01:39I tad on the small side for how far along she is.
01:42But nothing to worry about.
01:44Small?
01:44That's what I said to Abram.
01:46Is she not eating enough?
01:47Seems fine to me.
01:48But could it be what she's eating?
01:50She puts a lot of Egyptian spices in everything.
01:53And she keeps trying to feed me gall pestle to make the baby's eyes light like hers.
01:57No, that's not why.
01:58It's because I want his bones to be strong.
02:00How small is a tad small?
02:01She just said not to worry about it, so why don't we not?
02:06It's easy for her to say.
02:07She's leaving for Egypt as soon as the baby's born.
02:17What do you think of the name Jarrod?
02:23Kenan?
02:26Seth?
02:28I like Benjamin.
02:30And Caleb.
02:34And Ephraim.
03:03And my mother used to sing.
03:05Telling me that when I was a little girl.
03:09Always used to make me feel safe.
03:17Could I not do the same for you?
03:30Sarai, I need to speak with you.
03:38I want to keep the baby.
03:44We have an agreement.
03:46You can't just change your mind.
03:48I know.
03:48And I'm sorry.
03:50I know what I made my mark to.
03:51I just didn't know I was going to feel this way when I made it.
03:54What about going home to your family?
03:57I want to.
03:58Of course I do.
03:59But not if it means leaving my baby behind.
04:03It's not your baby.
04:08I should have known you wouldn't understand.
04:10Don't.
04:12Don't you dare make me feel less than you because I can't bear this child myself.
04:16What is happening?
04:17What's the matter?
04:17You are going back to Egypt.
04:18If you knew what this felt like, then you'd understand.
04:20But you can't and you never will.
04:22Do you see how she disrespects me?
04:24Do you see how she looks on me with contempt?
04:25You can't just take this baby and pretend that I had nothing to do with it.
04:29I knew I shouldn't have gone along with this.
04:31I should have had more faith.
04:32Oh, you want to make this about faith?
04:34Fine.
04:35May your God decide between us, then.
04:49Your maid is within your power.
04:51Do with her and you see fit.
05:00You are never to bring this matter up again.
05:04When the time is right, you will bear my son on my knee.
05:08And then you will go home to your family as we agreed.
05:14Am I clear?
05:16Yes.
05:34Everything I'd ever known had changed since this child in my womb.
05:42My freedom was no longer the most important thing.
05:49This child was.
06:01I broke her pledge.
06:03I broke her heart.
06:13I broke her heart.
06:17I broke her heart.
06:30I broke her heart.
06:33I broke her heart.
06:33I broke her heart.
06:33I broke her heart.
06:35I broke her heart.
07:03She took the white colt.
07:04You two, go south, along the river.
07:07You two, go east to Goshen Road.
07:11With the night longhead starved, is there even a chance we'll catch her?
07:13We must try. Go.
07:15We need to reach her before she gets within the gebbels.
07:17The desert will swallow her tracks.
07:25We've been searching for hours. She could be anywhere.
07:31I know you blame me.
07:32There's no way you could have known she'd do something like this.
07:35For asking you to lie with her in the first place.
07:38Should have had more faith.
07:43I wanted to give you a son.
07:44I know.
07:48Well, now he's gone.
07:51I know.
08:11I'm almost home, my son.
08:15Egypt.
08:36Hey, God.
08:41Mate of Sarai.
08:45Who are you?
08:47How do you know my name?
08:49Where have you come from?
08:51And where are you going?
08:57I'm running away from my mistress, Sarai.
09:00The Lord had taken heed of your affliction.
09:09Have I really just seen God and remained alive after seeing him?
09:14You have conceived and will bear a son.
09:19You shall call his name Ishmael.
09:22I will so greatly multiply your offspring that they cannot be come to her.
09:31What must I do for these things to come to pass?
09:35You know what you must do.
09:48Sarai.
09:50Sarai.
09:51Sarai.
09:56Sarai.
09:58My God.
10:00Hang on.
10:01Hang on.
10:03Hang on.

12:35oh
12:39oh
12:41oh
12:53How could I ever repay you?
12:56Let me stay.
12:59Let me be a part of his life.
13:03What about your home?
13:07He is my own home.
13:17Abram?
13:25So you're very careful, are you?
13:32Ishmael, my son.
13:44High up in the tower, clouds swirling all around them, one worker says to the other,
13:50give me my hammer, won't you?
13:53But what the other worker heard was...
13:57He's such a lucky boy to have a father like Abram.
14:00Because God, you see, had confused their language to keep Nimrod from building his tower any higher, and it sits
14:09unfinished in Babel to this very day.
14:12Tell me another one, Baba.
14:14Tomorrow, my son. Time for sleep.
14:17Alright.
14:18No, no, you stay. Enjoy the fire.
14:20I'll take him.
14:21Come on.
14:22Go on, my love.
14:26Come on.
14:33Bedtime, Ishmael.
14:34Hey, Gar.
14:35I wish you had a boy of your own, so I could play with him.
14:39Well, that wasn't meant to be.
14:41Why?
14:43Why?
14:45Only God can answer that.
14:48But I have you to take care of, and that's enough for me.
14:54Come on.
14:56Time to go to sleep.
15:30Mother?
15:32Who are those men with father?
15:35I'm not sure they arrived on horseback an hour ago.
15:38I'll see someone important.
15:40See how does prepare a choice calf.
15:45Hey, Ishmael. Off with you.
15:47Go back to your studies.
15:48Do I have to?
15:49Learn to read and write?
15:50Yes.
15:51You can shoot your bow later.
15:55Hey, Gar, will you take them the fruit?
15:57Yes.
15:59You haven't told your wife what's going to happen, have you?
16:03Not yet.
16:04She must know.
16:05She's a vital part of our covenant.
16:08Be assured, by the time I return to you in the spring,
16:13your wife, Sarah, will have a son.
16:17She may think she's too old, but nothing is impossible for me.
16:26That man.
16:28The one with his back to us.
16:30He was talking about you.
16:31Well, what was he saying?
16:32He said you're going to have a son in the spring.
16:35Maybe you should listen.
16:37She laughs.
16:40Your wife.
16:41And nothing's impossible for you, God.
16:44This is her destiny.
16:45Now I must go.
16:48Why must you travel to Sodom?
16:51It is such a wicked place.
16:54That is why we go there.
16:58To do what?
17:00This is not your concern.
17:04Remember, Abraham.
17:06Sarah will have her child in the spring.
17:25I am too old to bear a child.
17:28Nothing is impossible for our God.
17:30Abraham, if that is your new name, this is madness.
17:33God names you Sarah, and our child's name will be Isaac.
17:37And God will make his covenant with him.
17:40And what of Ishmael?
17:41Father, I'm going to have a brother.
17:45Yes, Ishmael, our brother.
17:47God will make his covenant with him, not me.
17:51It is not to be my son.
17:53But Abraham, Ishmael is your eldest.
17:56Hagar is right. This makes no sense.
17:58It's God's will.
17:59Father.
18:00I'm sorry, my son.
18:01Enough!
18:03Enough of your God's empty promises.
18:05Ishmael is your son and heir.
18:07There will be no other.
18:13You need to see this.
18:16Come.
18:17Come.
18:18Skye!
18:19Holy!
18:21Skye!
18:22What is it?
18:26What's happening?
18:28It's falling west on Solomon.
18:36God did this.
18:51The ash.
18:53It kills every green thing it touches.
18:56It is too dangerous for us here now.
19:00Have everyone start packing their things.
19:03We must leave this place.
19:30It seems to spend more and more time up there every day.
19:35He's followed his God and his promises up and down the Levant.
19:39It's been a long time since we left Canaan.
19:48Why can't he just be content where we are?
20:00Abraham.
20:02Keep the children inside.
20:06I'm staying with you, father.
20:15This land belongs to Abimelech, king of Gerar.
20:18We meant no trespass.
20:20We were unaware.
20:20Please tell your king.
20:21We meant no offense.
20:23Tell him yourself.
20:37I know you.
20:40This man struck your king long ago in Haran, but not forgotten.
20:46Nor avenged.
20:47For Abimelech!
20:50Your quarrel is with me.
20:53Sarah.
20:56Father.
20:57You're coming with me.
20:57Yes, ma'am.
20:58Father, are you all right?
20:58Abraham!
21:00Mother!
21:01Mother!
21:02Mother!
21:03Mother!
21:04Mother!
21:05Mother!
21:14Am I a prisoner here?
21:16I haven't decided yet.
21:19Mother!
21:20Put yourself in my place.
21:22Away for a year doing battle in Kith, I return home to find trespassers on my land.
21:27To make matters worse, their leader is a man who dared raise a hand to me.
21:32I let that go unanswered once.
21:34I wasn't about to do so again.
21:38And then suddenly...
21:42There you were.
21:46Defiant as ever.
21:49I couldn't believe my eyes.
21:53Still can't.
21:55We didn't know it was your land.
21:57It doesn't matter what you knew or didn't know.
22:00What matters is that to become king, I had to fight for every inch of it.
22:06I own rights that should be soaked with your people's blood.
22:09I know. I have no right to ask for your mercy, Abin.
22:11Abin.
22:14I can't remember the last time someone called me that.
22:19It really is you, isn't it?
22:24After all these years, lovely as ever.
22:27You see me with the eyes of youth.
22:34Have you ever regretted turning me down that day?
22:41It doesn't matter.
22:44What matters is that I am the sort of man who gets what he wants in the end.
22:50Been away a long time without many matters to attend to.
22:53I'll decide your people's fate when I return.
23:10There's no time.
23:11I won't wait a few days.
23:12I'm gonna wait a minute.
23:13How can I do that?
23:13Five minutes.
23:19How?
23:22Abraham bribed the guards.
23:23They wouldn't let him pass, though.
23:26Only me.
23:28Abraham and Israel are safe.
23:32We've been told that we have to leave the king's lands by tomorrow's end.
23:38Abraham won't go without you.
23:39Oh, no, he must.
23:42Abimelech has no intention of letting me go.
23:45It makes me sick just thinking about it.
23:48Oh, Sarah.
23:50Will you take care of Abraham and Israel?
23:53Oh, what is it? What's the matter?
23:55I think I just need to sit down.
23:57Yes.
24:03Oh.
24:04What?
24:05Wait.
24:07Do you feel this?
24:14You're with a child.
24:24I know now you're a god who keeps his promises.
24:29Sorry I didn't believe.
24:35I know I have no right to ask you to deliver me from this place.
24:47But if you won't do it for me, will you do it for him?
24:55For Abraham, your faithful servant?
25:01Please let him have this child.
25:29Your god.
25:32came to me in a dream.
25:36He said
25:39that I and everyone in my family
25:41would be killed if I didn't release you.
25:52In her darkest hour,
25:54the promise was delivered.
26:00As each month passed,
26:02the child of the covenant
26:03inside her womb grew.
26:07And so did her faith.
26:10Oh.
26:12Oh, Abraham.
26:15He's really here.
26:18Oh, son.
26:21My darling love.
26:25Oh, I've longed to hold you in my arms.
26:30Surely nothing is impossible for Carnival.
26:36Oh, darling.
26:38Oh, yes.
26:41My brother's here.
26:43Should I go bow to him?
26:45He mustn't talk like that.
26:48Why him?
26:51Why him and not me?
26:52You've known me since I was a boy.
26:54Did they do something
26:56to deserve being pushed aside like this?
26:58No one thinks that.
27:03Then why?
27:17See how many stars there are, Isaac?
27:20So will your descendants me.
27:24When you're older,
27:26the wife I wish for you
27:30is bold
27:31and fearless
27:34and gentle
27:35and kind.
27:36She has a heart
27:37full of adventure.
27:42I can almost see her now
27:44out there somewhere
27:46waiting for destiny
27:48to bring you together.
27:50A little young, don't you think?
27:51To be talking of marriage.
27:53Oh, I'm just showing him the stars.
27:58When he is older,
28:00I think his wife
28:01should come from Haran.
28:03From among our kin.
28:05Haran?
28:06Well, you sound surprised.
28:08No, it's a fine idea.
28:09I just didn't...
28:10I just don't remember
28:11you ever speaking of this
28:12with Ishmael.
28:16I love both my sons.
28:20They each have a different path.
28:25It's story time, Father.
28:27Yes, it is.
28:28Gather round.
28:29Gather round.
28:29Tonight,
28:30we shall speak of
28:33Adam and Eve's
28:34two sons, Cain and Abel.
28:36Cain was very jealous
28:37of his brother.
28:39One day,
28:40he took him out
28:40into the fields,
28:41alone.
28:43Cain held up a stone
28:46and slayed his brother.
28:49Abel's blood cried
28:50up from the ground
28:52to our God.
28:54Give it, it's mine!
28:55Fine.
28:56Take it.
28:58I said,
28:59take it.
28:59Give it, it's mine!
29:01Mine, mine, mine!
29:02You think everything
29:03belongs to you.
29:05He doesn't!
29:06Ishmael!
29:07Don't speak to your brother
29:08like that!
29:09I hate him.
29:10I'll never bow to him.
29:12Never!
29:13Isaac,
29:14go and find your father.
29:16He didn't mean
29:17the words he said.
29:19No?
29:19He's in pain.
29:20Can't you tell?
29:22He thinks Isaac
29:23was chosen over him
29:24because of something
29:24he's done wrong.
29:25He deserves to know
29:27the truth,
29:28that he is as much
29:29Abraham's son
29:30as Isaac is,
29:31but not yours.
29:33And for some reason
29:34that only God
29:34himself knows.
29:36Somebody needs to tell me.
29:37Tell him.
29:38If I tell him,
29:39he'll hate me
29:40for having deceived him
29:41his entire life.
29:43Ishmael will never
29:44submit to Isaac.
29:46The more Isaac grows,
29:47the more Ishmael
29:48will hate him.
29:51Like Hain hated Abel.
30:06The more Isaac
30:22is the only one
30:22You know what this is?
30:25The pledge between you and Hagar.
30:28Where did you get that?
30:30Found it in Father's tent.
30:34Is it true that you're not my mother?
30:41In my heart, I am.
30:44I'm not your son.
30:47It all makes sense now.
30:50You did this.
30:51No. No.
30:53I have always done what you have told me to do.
30:55Liar.
30:56You are a liar.
30:57You lied to me my whole life.
31:07Cast her out.
31:11Cast them both out.
31:13We have to protect Isaac.
31:15No matter the cost.
31:17So you protect only one of your sons?
31:19Ishmael will never submit to his brother.
31:21You know that in your heart.
31:24Send them away before it is too late, Abraham.
31:27Abraham, please!
31:28Enough!
31:34Enough!
31:41You can keep them.
31:43I want nothing of this place.
31:45I am sorry, my son.
31:50It's not you I blame, Father.
32:03God is with you, Hagar.
32:06God is with you.
32:12Ishmael, please don't leave!
32:14Please!
32:17Come back!
32:19Go back!
32:20Please!
32:21Don't leave!
32:23Isaac!
32:24I have to go!
32:26Go home!
32:28Don't leave!
32:31It's not me!
32:33Come back!
32:36Please don't leave!
32:38Come back!
32:50I have to go!
32:51No, you take the rest.
32:54What happens to me is not important.
32:56You are all that matters.
32:58But rather...
33:04Do you know how long I've you earned to hear you call me now?
33:10We must keep going.
33:15I cannot.
33:16Oh, yeah.
33:16We can't.
33:18I just need to rest.
33:19We rest, we die.
33:28I fell.
33:37Fear not, Hagar.
33:39Fear not, Hagar.
33:43For God is with you and the glory.
33:49My son.
33:51He needs water.
33:53Rise and hold him fast,
33:55so that I might make a great nation of him.
34:27Oh, my God.
34:29Oh.
34:37Rest my mind.
34:43I finally made it to the ocean.
34:46Oh.
34:50I love.
34:52You bring my box.
34:54I'm over there.
35:10I have to tell you the truth.
35:13Open it.
35:14Open it.
35:21Oh.
35:22I pledge.
35:24For Hagar.
35:25You kept it.
35:29It was I who left it in your tent.
35:33I wanted Israel to find it.
35:36You?
35:39It was you who left it there.
35:42Not Hagar.
35:43Not Hagar.
35:47I knew he would never leave.
35:50He loved you too much.
35:54So I gave him someone to hate.
35:58Me.
35:59You know how much I loved that boy.
36:02If he had stayed,
36:06he would have lived his whole life in the shadow of his brother.
36:12I had to let him go.
36:15So he could find his destiny, then we found ours.
36:20You have held on to this secret all these years.
36:24I had to.
36:28I couldn't have done what you did.
36:34But then again,
36:36you were always the stronger one.
36:39Oh, my love.
36:42I go to God soon.
36:47You would embrace me without malice as you, will you?
36:54I'll wait for you then.
37:19I'll wait for you then.
37:24Sarah's journey was the hardest of all.
37:28She had to make the decisions that affected all of our lives.
37:33She kept the secrets and carried the burden.
37:38That was no easy task.
37:41She found her trust and faith and peace.
37:47She came to symbolize motherhood.
37:50She was the first of the great matriarchs.
37:54She was my friend.
38:09We're here to bury our dead.
38:13Who stands in our way?
38:27Hagar.
38:29You came.
38:33Isaac, do you remember me?
38:37I do.
38:40How is my brother Ishmael?
38:42He is well.
38:45He's attending to his family.
38:47And he is admired by all who surround him.
38:49That gives me so much peace.
38:53Isaac, have you taken a wife?
38:57Not yet.
39:00My mother always wanted me to marry a girl from Haran.
39:06Come.
39:08Let us bury your beautiful wife.

40:21I took this when I left Egypt.
40:26So that someday I might see my home again.
40:32Because of you, I did.
40:38I got my freedom and my son.
40:50Godspeed, old friend.
40:54There won't soon be another like you.
41:18Godspeed, old friend.
