The Lord Will

Genesis 18:15

β€œThen Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.”

KJV

Read in Genesis 18

Meaning

Afraid, Sarah denies that she laughed, but the LORD directly answers that she did.

Read carefully

The brief correction should not be inflated into a complete judgment on Sarah's character; the larger story continues to center the promised birth through her.

Reflection

The scene ends with truthful correction rather than concealment, while the promise itself remains intact.
