Sarah's feelings towards Hagar, as depicted in the biblical narrative of Genesis, were complex. Initially, Sarah gave Hagar to Abraham as a concubine to bear children when she herself was unable to conceive. However, once Hagar became pregnant, Sarah felt jealousy and resentment, leading to conflict between the two women. This tension suggests that while Sarah may not have outright hated Hagar, her feelings were certainly marked by jealousy and animosity.
