<p> (Heb. Se'rach, שֵׂרִה, perhaps overflow; Sept. in [[Genesis]] Σάρα [v.r. Σορέ ], but in Chronicles Σαραί [v.r. Σαάρ ]; also written "Sarah" [q.v.] in Numbers 26:46), the daughter of Asher, son of [[Jacob]] (Genesis 46:17; Numbers 26:46; 1 Chronicles 7:30). B.C. cir. 1864. The mention of a female in a list of this kind, in which no others of her sex are named, and contrary to the usual practice of the Jews, seems to indicate something extraordinary in connection with her history or circumstances. This has sufficed to excite the ever active imaginations of the rabbins; and the [[Jews]] fable that she was very remarkable for piety and virtue, and was therefore privileged to be the first person to tell Jacob that his son [[Joseph]] was still living (Genesis 45:26), on which account she was translated alive (like Enoch) to paradise, where, according to the ancient book Zohar, are four mansions or palaces, each presided over by an illustrious woman, viz. Sarah, daughter of Asher, the daughter of [[Pharaoh]] who brought up Moses; Jochebed, mother of Moses; and [[Deborah]] the prophetess. </p> | |||
