Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root verb שָׂרָה (sarah), meaning "to contend" or "to have power."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G4564 Σάρα (Sara): The Greek equivalent of the Hebrew name Sarah, used in the New Testament, particularly in references to Sarah in the context of faith and the lineage of the faithful (e.g., Romans 4:19, Hebrews 11:11). Usage: The term is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a woman of high status or nobility. It is most famously used as the name of Sarah, the wife of Abraham, who is a central figure in the narratives of Genesis. Context: The name שָׂרָה (Sarah) is prominently featured in the Hebrew Bible, particularly in the Book of Genesis. Sarah is introduced as the wife of Abraham and is initially named Sarai. Her name is changed to Sarah, meaning "princess," by God as part of the covenantal promise to Abraham (Genesis 17:15). Sarah is depicted as a woman of beauty and faith, though she also experiences moments of doubt and impatience, particularly regarding the promise of a son. Despite her advanced age, she miraculously gives birth to Isaac, fulfilling God's promise to Abraham that he would be the father of many nations. Sarah's life and actions are integral to the unfolding of the Abrahamic covenant, and she is honored as a matriarch in the faith traditions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Her story is a testament to the themes of faith, promise, and divine intervention.
