Genesi 17:15 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 17:15

And God said unto Abraham
After he had changed his name, and given him the covenant of circumcision:

as for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah
her name [shall be];
her former name Sarai signifies "my princess", or rather "princesses", being to him in the room of many, and better than ten thousand; yet only a princess to him, and in his family, being sole mistress there: but Sarah signifies, as Jarchi observes, "princess" absolutely, because she was princess over all the princes and people that should come of her, as well as be the mother and princess of all female believers, who are called her daughters, ( 1 Peter 3:6 ) .

Genesi 17:15 In-Context

13 Quello nato in casa tua e quello comprato con danaro dovrĂ  esser circonciso; e il mio patto nella vostra carne sarĂ  un patto perpetuo.
14 E il maschio incirconciso, che non sarĂ  stato circonciso nella sua carne, sarĂ  reciso di fra il su popolo: egli avrĂ  violato il mio patto".
15 E Dio disse ad Abrahamo: "Quanto a Sarai tua moglie, non la chiamar piĂą Sarai; il suo nome sarĂ , invece Sara.
16 E io la benedirò, ed anche ti darò di lei un figliuolo; io la benedirò, ed essa diverrà nazioni; re di popoli usciranno da lei".
17 Allora Abrahamo si prostrò con la faccia in terra e rise; e disse in cuor suo: "Nascerà egli un figliuolo a un uomo di cent’anni? e Sara, che ha novant’anni, partorirà ella?"
