A story from Genesis centers around Abraham and his wife, Sarah. They are advanced in age and God yet promises them a future lineage of an uncountable nature. (Genesis 15 – 18).
Eventually, Sarah hears about this and laughs at the absurdity
of bearing a child when she is decades beyond the physical limitations of this
possibility. (In sermons, Sarah bears the brunt of this faux pas, but Abraham also
laughs about this when he receives the promise at 99 years old.)
Well, anyway, most of us would laugh, too.
