2060. Verse 15 And God said to Abraham, Sarai your wife you will not call by her name Sarai, for Sarah will be her name.

'God said to Abraham' means perception. 'Sarai your wife' means here, as previously, truth joined to good. 'You will not call by her name Sarai' means that He will cast off the human. 'For Sarah will be her name' means that He will put on the Divine.
