Sarah, esteemed in scripture as a matriarch, figures in the Book of Mormon in a passage quoting the prophet Isaiah, which exhorts the people to remember the legacy and lineage from which they hail. Sarah is emblematically mentioned as the wife of Abraham and as a signal of their covenant with God, wherein they were promised a multitude of posterity and blessings (2 Nephi 8:2). The reference serves as a reminder of God’s power to bless and make fruitful, invoking Sarah’s role as the mother through whom God’s blessings to Abraham would be realized. Her significance is underscored by her naming which means “princess,” denoting her standing and the respect accorded to her as Abraham’s wife and a key figure in the lineage of the patriarchs. In the context of the Book of Mormon, her mention is brief yet significant, as it aligns the covenant people of the Promised Land with the patriarchal traditions and divine promises known to the Israelites.
