In the Book of Genesis, Keturah or Ketura (קטורה "Incense", Standard Hebrew Qətura, Tiberian Hebrew Qəṭūrāh) is the woman whom Abraham marries after the death of Sarah. She bares him Zimran , Jokshan , Medan, Midian, Ishbak , and Shuah .
Classical Torah scholarship teaches that Keturah was actually another name for Hagar, Abraham's former concubine who had borne Ishmael.
