Genesis 18:13 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 18:13

And the Lord said unto Abraham
This discovers who the person was that had been conversing with Abraham, that he was a divine Person, as appears by his name "Jehovah", as well as by his knowledge of Sarah's behaviour; he did not turn himself to her, that it might be more manifest that it was not upon the sight of her he judged she laughed, but from his own omniscience; and he chose rather to speak to her husband than to her, appearing as a stranger, and that he might reprove her: wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, shall I of a surety bear a child,
which am old?
suggesting there was no reason for it, and signifying his displeasure and indignation at it.

Genesis 18:13 In-Context

11 erant autem ambo senes provectaeque aetatis et desierant Sarrae fieri muliebria
12 quae risit occulte dicens postquam consenui et dominus meus vetulus est voluptati operam dabo
13 dixit autem Dominus ad Abraham quare risit Sarra dicens num vere paritura sum anus
14 numquid Deo est quicquam difficile iuxta condictum revertar ad te hoc eodem tempore vita comite et habebit Sarra filium
15 negavit Sarra dicens non risi timore perterrita Dominus autem non est inquit ita sed risisti
