Sarah is a woman who plays an important role in the Judeo-Christian faiths. The great prophet Isaiah tells the Hebrew people to look to Sarah who bore them as examples from which they came. In 1st Peter 3, Christian wives are encouraged to pattern themselves after Sarah of the Old Testament. If both men speak the truth, why have I been taught throughout my lifetime Sarah was a less than perfect wife? A woman whose character qualities were less than desirable. A woman whose mark on history paled in comparison to her husband Abraham, a great man of faith. These questions have haunted me and drove me to investigate the matter. Through several years of prayer, Bible study, and research I have come to agree with what Scripture has to say about the character of Sarah and discard what I have been taught. This is a revealing look at Sarah, her situation, and the time and culture she lived, told through the view of a woman of the laity.
