The Apostle Peter recalls this sentence when, admonishing women to obey their husbands, he added: \"As Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord.\" It seems, however, similar to this passage what is read about Abraham above, for when he heard about Sarah's childbirth, he fell on his face and laughed in his heart, saying: Shall a child be born to a man who is a hundred years old? And shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a child? And he added, speaking to God: Oh that Ishmael might live before you! But since the Apostle says that Abraham did not waver in unbelief, but Sarah did hesitate, the following word of the Lord clarifies, saying to Abraham:<br/><i>— Commentary on Genesis (Hexaemeron)</i></p><p><b>Bede</b>: Why did Sarah laugh, saying: \"Shall I indeed bear a child, old as I am?\" It remains to be understood that when she heard that Sarah would bear a son, Abraham had previously laughed in wonder with joy, and Sarah herself subsequently doubted in joy; whose doubt, nevertheless, was immediately removed when the reason for divine power was given, as the angel said to him:<br/><i>— Commentary on Genesis (Hexaemeron)</i></p><p><b>Jerome</b>: (Verse 12.) But Sarah laughed within herself, saying: After I am waxed old, shall I have pleasure? It is much differently read in Hebrew: And Sarah laughed within herself, saying: After I have withered, shall I have pleasure? Also note that where we have translated as pleasure, it is written as delight in Hebrew. Symmachus translated this passage as: After I have grown old, shall I have youth?<br/><i>— Hebrew Questions on Genesis</i></p><p><b>Augustine of Hippo</b>: WHY GOD TAKES SARAH'S LAUGHTER. AND NOT THAT OF ABRAHAM? — And the Lord said to Abraham, Why is it that Sarah has laughed in herself, saying, Shall I then truly bear? I am grown old . Some wonder why the Lord only rebuked Sarah, while Abraham also laughed. The reason is that Abraham's laughter was one of admiration and joy. Sarah's, however, was originated by doubt, and God, who knows the hearts of men, could distinguish one laugh from another. (Cf. Prov. 24:12.) [<br/><i>— QUESTIONS ON GENESIS, Q. 35 (tr. J.
