Sarai, whose name was later changed to Sarah, was the wife of Abraham and mother of Issac. So far as I know, the date of her birth is not known - however, we can assume that she would have been of a similar age to her husband who was born in around 1812 BCE (BC) according to traditional dating (which estimates dates by counting back lifespans of various bibilical characters whose births can be dated with some degree of accuracy, such as Christ or various kings that are recorded in other sources). We can assume that, if this method of dating is accurate, that Sarah would have been born at around the same time.

Why did Sarai become Sarah?

This is hard to explain. The Book of Genesis says that God gave Sarai the new name, Sarah, when he gave Abram the new name of Abraham. However, Sarai and Sarah have the same meaning in Hebrew, both meaning 'Princess'.


Where is sarai in the Bible found?

Sarai's name is first mentioned in Genesis 11:29-31. Sarai is believed to mean: Princess. The Lord changed her name to Sarah (princess of nations). At the same time the Lord changed Abram's name (exalted father) to Abraham( father of many nations) See Geneses 17:5,15. Sarai was Abram's brothers daughter, Haran, who died. She and Lot where adopted by Abram's father, Terah. When Abram travelled to Egypt with Sarai, his wife at that time, he did not lie when he told the Egyptians that she was his sister. Technically she was, being the adopted daughter of his father.>


How many times is Sarah mentioned in bible?

In the King James version the word - Sara - appears twice the word - Sarah - appears 38 times the word - Sarah's - appears 3 times the word - Sarai - appears 16 times the word - Sarai's - appears once (Sarai was the wife of Abram, before both their names were changed to Sarah and Abraham)


Is Sarai the second woman named in the Bible?

No. The second woman named is Naamah in Genesis ch.4.


When is sara first mentioned in the bible?

Sara is not mentioned in the Bible. Sarah is probably who you are asking about. The name Sarah is first mentioned in Genesis 17:15 when God changed Sarai's name to Sarah (after he changed Abram's name to Abraham). Sarai is first mentioned in Genesis 11:29 as Abram's wife.
