¹ εἵπετο δ’ εὐθὺς ἡ γένεσις Ἰσαάκ· καλέσας γὰρ τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ Σάρραν ἀντὶ Σάρας φησὶ τῷ Ἀβραάμ· „δώσω σοι ἐξ αὐτῆς τέκνον“ (Gen. 17, 16). ἐν μέρει δ’ ἕκαστον ἀκριβωτέον.

On the question why certain Names in the Holy Scriptures are changed First1KGreek (The works of Philo Judaeus, the contemporary of Josephus, Volume 2. Yonge, C. D., translator. London: Henry G. Bohn, 1854.) — 130 focus

Immediately after the events which we have just mentioned, ¹² came the birth of Isaac; for after God had given to his mother the name of Sarrah instead of Sarah, he said to Abraham, "I will give unto thee a son." ³ We must consider each of the things here indicated particularly.
