Best Answer

Abimelech, in both cases (Genesis ch.20 and 26).

Note that "Abimelech" was a title (like "Pharaoh"), not a personal name. Since many decades passed between the two incidents, it was probably two different "Abimelechs."

Both Abraham and Isaac lied about the identity of their wives, Sarah and Rebekah, claiming them to be their sisters to protect themselves. However, it was King Abimelech of Gerar who unknowingly took Sarah as his wife, thinking she was Abraham's sister (Genesis 20). Isaac did the same deceit with Rebekah, which was (fortunately) discovered before a similar incident happened (Genesis 26:7).
