Sarah:
"But my covenantª will I establishª° with¹ Isaac,ª which¹ Sarahª shall bearª° unto thee at this¹ set timeª in the nextª year.ª" {Gen 17:21} + "And he said,ª° I will certainly²° returnª° unto¹ thee according to the timeª of life;ª and, lo,¹ Sarahª thy wifeª shall have a son.ª And Sarahª heardª° [it] in the tentª door,ª which¹ [was] behind¹ him.² ... Is²° any thingª too hardª° for the LORD?ª¹ At the time appointedª I will returnª° unto¹ thee, according to the timeª of life,ª and Sarahª shall have a son.ª" {Gen 18:10-14} + "For Sarahª conceived,ª° and bareª° Abrahamª a sonª in his old age,ª at the set timeª of which¹ Godª had spokenª° to him. ... And Abrahamª calledª°¹ the nameª of his sonª that was bornª° unto him, whom¹ Sarahª bareª° to him, Isaac.ª" {Gen 21:2-3} + "And Sarahª said,ª° Godª hath madeª° me to laugh,ª [so that] all¹ that hearª° will laughª° with me." {Gen 21:6} + "And he said,ª° About this¹ season,ª according to the timeª of life,ª thou¹ shalt embraceª° a son.ª And she said,ª° Nay,¹ my lord,ª [thou] manª of God,ª do not lieª°¹ unto thine handmaid.ª ... And the womanª conceived,ª° and bareª° a sonª at that¹ seasonª that¹ Elishaª had saidª° unto¹ her, according to the timeª of life.ª" {2Kg 4:16-17} + "Butª the¹ angelª saidª° untoª him,ª Fearª°° not,ª Zacharias:ª forª thyª prayerª is heard;ª° andª thyª wifeª Elisabethª shall bearª° theeª a son,ª andª thou shalt callª° hisª nameª John.ª ... And,ª behold,ª° thou²° shalt be¹ dumb,ª° andª notª ableª° to speak,ª° untilª the¹ dayª that² these thingsª shall be performed,ª° becauseª² thou¹ believestª° notª myª words,ª whichª shall be fulfilledª° inª their²¹ season.ª" {Lke 1:13-20} + "¹ Notª as² thoughª²¹ the¹ wordª of Godª hath taken none effect.ª° Forª they¹ [are] notª allª² Israel,ª whichª² are of¹ Israel:ª ... Forª thisª [is] the¹ wordª of promise,ª Atª thisª timeª will I come,ª° andª Saraª shall haveª° a son.ª" {Rom 9:6-9} + "Nowª we,ª brethren,ª asª° Isaacª was,² areª° the childrenª of promise.ª ... So then,ª brethren,ª we areª° notª childrenª of the bondwoman,ª butª of the¹ free.ª" {Gal 4:28-31}
Isaac:
Yitzchak, which we change into Isaac, signifies laughter; in allusion to Abraham's laughing, "Then Abrahamª fellª° upon¹ his face,ª and laughed,ª° and saidª° in his heart,ª Shall [a child] be bornª° unto him that is an hundredª yearsª old?ª and shall Sarah,ª that is ninetyª yearsª old,ª bear?ª°" {Gen 17:17}. By this Abraham did not express his unbelief or weakness of faith, but his joy at the prospect of the fulfilment of so glorious a promise; and to this our Lord evidently alludes, "Yourª fatherª Abrahamª rejoicedª° toª seeª° myª day:ª andª he sawª° [it], andª was glad.ª°" {Jhn 8:56}.
