[edit] Comment

I think sarah is not a "princess" but a ruler or governor. In modern-days hebrew Sar is someone sitting in the Knesset (oposition), and sarah is the feemale form of sar.

The versions of The Bible I am familiar with do not indicate Abraham paid an "exhorbant price" for the burial "area". In fact it was offered for free if I recall.. He (Abraham) insisted on paying for it...

[edit] The top is too long

We need to shorten the length of the top section. Right now we have to scroll an entire page before you reach the TOC.--Max Talk (add) • Contribs • 05:53, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

"...after the laughter which Abraham had made when his son's birth was prophesied by the angel." It was Sarah who laughed, not Abraham. (Gen. 18:12) I will make a change to reflect this. Acantha1979 01:38, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Acantha

[edit] Citing sources?

Can you cite your sources for the last half of this article on the two facts? Seriously, I wish to know these websites and proof that you did not make them up or anything like that. By the way, I have discovered by four reliable websites that "Sarah" is a Hebrew name that is translated as noble or princess. I have proof and I will update this page as soon as I revive the URL again. Fishdert 14:21, 26 October 2006 (UTC)Fishdert
