Genesis 18:9-15
18:9 a The visitors’ rhetorical question focuses attention on Sarah, whom the visitors knew by name.18:10 b I will return: The Hebrew verb means “to intervene in someone’s life to change their destiny.” The statement announced a coming dramatic change.
Summary for Gen 18:13-15: 18:13-15 c Sarah thought her disbelieving laughter was hidden, but God knows human hearts (see Ps 69:5 d; Prov 20:27 e; Mark 4:22 f; Luke 8:43-48 g; Heb 4:13 h), whether they stagger at the promises or step out in faith (see Heb 11:11-12 i).
18:14 j Is anything too hard for the Lord? The question is rhetorical. God is able to do marvelous things. Nothing is incredible to those in covenant fellowship with the Lord, because nothing is too difficult for him.
