Isaac Is Born

1 And the Lord ^avisited Sarah as He had said, and the Lord did for Sarah ^bas He had spoken.

2 For Sarah ^aconceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, ^bat the set time of which God had spoken to him.

3 And Abraham called the name of his son who was born to him—whom Sarah bore to him—^aIsaac.

4 Then Abraham ^acircumcised his son Isaac when he was eight days old, ^bas God had commanded him.

5 Now ^aAbraham was one hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him.

6 And Sarah said, ^a“God has made me laugh, and all who hear ^bwill laugh with me.”

Genesis 21:3-7

Isaac means laughing and it is a reference to Abraham laughing in joy at the prospect of the possibility of Sarah giving birth to the promised son, and of course it is also a witness against them because of Sarah’s laugh of unbelief. And now here she is saying that everyone will laugh with me in joy and in amazement that I should give birth to a child at age 90.
