Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew name שָׂרָה (Sarah) Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: H8283 (שָׂרָה, Sarah) Usage: The name "Sarra" refers to the wife of Abraham and the mother of Isaac. In the New Testament, she is mentioned as an exemplar of faith and obedience. Her account is pivotal in the narrative of God's covenant with Abraham, highlighting themes of promise, faith, and divine intervention. Cultural and Historical Background: Sarah, originally named Sarai, was a key matriarch in the Hebrew Bible. Her life is chronicled in the Book of Genesis, where she is depicted as a woman of beauty and faith. Despite her initial barrenness, God promised Abraham that she would be "a mother of nations" (Genesis 17:16). Her name was changed from Sarai to Sarah, meaning "princess," signifying her role in the divine promise. Her account is intertwined with the cultural practices of the time, including the custom of concubinage, as seen in her relationship with Hagar.
