حسادت زن

Sarah, wife of Abraham, stands with folded arms and a guarded expression beneath her desert veil. Her aged face and tense posture point to the household conflict surrounding Hagar after the Egyptian servant conceived a child for Abraham. The portrait centers on the painful human side of the covenant story: longing, rivalry, wounded dignity, and the struggle to trust God’s promise when fulfillment seems delayed. In Genesis, Sarah’s barrenness leads her to give Hagar to Abraham, but the plan produces bitterness rather than peace. The image is suited for teaching on Genesis 16, the danger of forcing God’s promises through human schemes, and the compassion needed when faith is tested by jealousy and disappointment.
