OET (OET-RV) Then Abraham continued his stay in the Philistine region for quite some time.
וַיָּ֧גָר אַבְרָהָ֛ם

See how you translated “sojourning” in verse 23. Alternate translation: “After that, he stayed there”
בְּאֶ֥רֶץ פְּלִשְׁתִּ֖ים
in=land Pelishtim
Alternate translation: “in the territory that was occupied by the Philistines” or “in the territory where the Philistines lived”

Abraham lived in the Philistines’ territory for around 25 years, so keep that in mind as you translate this phrase. For some languages it is clearer or more natural to put this time phrase earlier in this sentence and say, “… lived there for many years in the land …” Do what is best in your language.
21:22-34 This passage, at its climax, explains the name of Beersheba, Abraham’s home (21:31-34). Beersheba reflected the covenant Abraham made with the residents of the land, which enabled him to dwell there in peace and prosperity. God’s promise was coming to fruition (12:7; 13:14-17; 15:7, 18-21; 17:8).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
