nor, because they are Abraham's seed, are they all children, rather, In Isaac a seed will be called for thee.

But

And God said to Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shall not call her name Sarai, but her name shall be Sarah.

And he said, I will certainly return to thee when the season comes round, and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard in the tent door, which was behind him.

And LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and LORD did to Sarah as he had spoken.

Who, against hope, believed in hope, in order for him to become father of many nations according to that which was spoken, So thy seed will be.

But what does it say? The word is near thee, in thy mouth and in thy heart, that is, the word of faith that we preach:

By faith even Sarah herself received power for conception of seed, and she gave birth beyond the time of age, because she considered him faithful who promised.
