Ramban
BEHOLD, I HAVE GIVEN THY BROTHER A THOUSAND PIECES OF SILVER. The sheep, the cattle and the servants which he gave him were worth a thousand pieces of silver. He thus said to Sarah: “Behold, I have given much money to your brother. Now the money will serve you as a cause for the covering of the eyes of all those who look at your beauty,284“Had I given the money to you, people might say it was a harlot’s hire. But now that I have given it to your brother, people will say that I had to redeem myself against my will, and this will thus enable you to speak freely in your defense.” (Bachya.) closing their eyes, and those of their leaders, the seers,285See Isaiah 29:10, And your heads, the seers hath He covered. to prevent them looking at you and at all that belongs to you, even your manservants and maidservants. Thus your being taken forcibly to my house was for your benefit as they will fear you and cover their eyes to avoid looking at you, saying: ‘The king had to redeem himself for having stretched forth his hand to the prophet’s wife.’”
The verse thus tells that Abimelech mollified Abraham with money, and Sarah with words, so that he should not be punished on account of either of them. The verse states in conclusion, venochachath,286According to Ramban, as is clear from the text further on, the translation of this word is, “and she continued to protest.” as Sarah did not accept his apology, for with all this,287The money he gave to Abraham and the words of apology he offered her. she yet continued arguing with him, saying that she would not forgive him. The verse thus speaks in her praise. Abraham, however, was appeased, and he prayed for the king. The word venochachath is similar in usage to these verses: And with Israel ‘yithvakach’ (He has an argument);288Micah 6:2. But my ways ‘ochiach’ (will I argue) before Him;289Job 13:15. There the upright ‘nochach’ (might reason) with Him.290Ibid., 23:7.
It is possible that the expression, a thousand pieces of silver to thy brother, means thousands of pieces of silver, much wealth, according to the bounty of the king.291Esther 1:7. Similarly, The smallest shall become a thousand,292Isaiah 60:22. [means that the smallest will become] a great people. Similarly: Restore, I pray you, to them even this day, their fields, their vineyards, their oliveyards, and their houses, also the hundred pieces of silver, and the corn, the wine, and oil, that ye exact of them293Nehemiah 5:11. — [here too the hundred pieces of silver refer to] many hundreds, a great deal of money.
