Matthew Poole and continuators on Genesis 12:11

11. And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his Wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a fair Woman to look upon.

Qu. How could she be so fair, when she was above 60 years old. Ans. She was so both comparatively to the Egyptians, and simply in her self, and that might be from diverse causes, 1. From the greater vigour of Nature in that Age of the World. 2. Because her beauty was not diminished by Childbearing. 3. From God's singular providence, ordering it thus for Abrams tryal, and for the manifestation of his special providence, watching over him and his.
