Abraham and Isaac......and king Abimelech

[Gary O']

So, I've begun reading thru the entire Bible
oh, I've studied
and read chapters
But never thru the entire Bible

I knew about Abraham saying Sarah was his sister, to king Abimelech
But
I don't recall Isaac doing the very same thing, and with Abimelech

Before I delve into this on my own, I have a question;

Was Abimelech the same king or another king of the same name?
...or have I read this wrong (it's late in the night, and I might've misread something)

Anybody know?

   Mar 22, 2022Question Who was Abimelech in the Bible? Answer There are actually several men named Abimelech in the Bible. Some translations, such as the NIV, spell the name Abimelek. Either way, the name means "father of the king." Some of the Philistines kings are called "Abimelech."

Thank you @Aaron112

I was thinking along those lines, but hadn't nailed it down
