While studying for meeting this Thursday, I realized something astounding:
Without going too much into the fact that Abraham and his son Isaac had the really bad habit of losing their wives to kings, (if your wife is that hot, put a bag over her head or something, jeesh!) Sarah must have been on an unearthly level of beautiful.
I say this because the first time she was taken, by the king of Egypt, she was between 65 and 70 years old, which, even by yesteryears standards, was pretty old.
Granted, she hadn't had kids yet, (you know, the whole barren thing,) and she lived a pretty cushy life. Yea, yea, she had to pack up and live in tents, but they were blessed by God in everything but children, so they were rich, very rich.
And every time Sarah got taken by a king, they were given even more riches. So it's not as if she was having to milk her own cows or anything.
Okay, so no pregnancies and a softer lifestyle; I can see how she would still be hot enough to take by a king, got it.
BUT! When she was taken by the king of Philistine, (see that? The second time she was taken by a king. Come on Abraham, the whole "this is my sister" thing isn't working, try a new trick,) it was the same year she finally gave birth to Isaac, when she was a grand total of 90 years old.
All I have to say to this is: Damn girl!
You can argue that they lived a lot longer back then, and this is true, but she passed away 32 years after that so she was no Spring chicken.
Even she acknowledged that she was old at the time when she overheard Jehovah telling Abraham that she would give birth to a child, laughing at the idea in fact.
All in all, this woman was extraordinary. She was an amazing example, a tough chickity, and apparently very, very hot.
