Kejadian 17:15-16

17:15 Then God said to Abraham, “As for your wife, you must no longer call her Sarai; Sarah will be her name. 17:16 I will bless her and will give you a son through her. I will bless her and she will become a mother of nations. Kings of countries will come from her!”


tn Heb “[As for] Sarai your wife, you must not call her name Sarai, for Sarah [will be] her name.”

sn Sarah. The name change seems to be a dialectical variation, both spellings meaning “princess” or “queen.” Like the name Abram, the name Sarai symbolized the past. The new name Sarah, like the name Abraham, would be a reminder of what God intended to do for Sarah in the future.

tn Heb “she will become nations.”

tn Heb “peoples.”
