Abraham sojourned in Ge-rar. So he temporarily stayed at Ge-rar, there he said to Abimelech that Sarah was his sister, so Abimelech to Sarah. GOD went to Abimelech in a dream and said to him "Thou art but a dead man, for the woman which thou hast taken; for she is another man's wife"

Abimelech said to GOD that he did it in the integrity of his heart, and GOD said He knew that he did it in the integrity of his heart, but that He (GOD) has also said that He withheld him from sinning against Him. And because he did it; in the integrity of his heart, GOD said, that is why HE came and tell him not to touch her

(That leads me to believe that Abimelech wanted to sleep with Sarah but GOD withheld him from doing so, GOD then went and set him straight in a dream)
