1 Peter 3:6

“Even as Sarah obeyed Abraham, etc.] Going along with him wherever he went, as from Chaldea to Canaan, and into Egypt, and the land of the Philistines, saying the words he put into her mouth, (<011205>Genesis 12:5,11,13) and doing the things he bid her do, (<011806>Genesis 18:6) “calling him lord”; or “my lord”, as the Syriac and Ethiopic versions render it, and as it appears she did from (<011812>Genesis 18:12). The Jews use this instance to the same purpose the apostle does, saying f67, “the wife ought to take care of the family, to educate her children, to serve and minister to her husband in all things, “calling him her own lord”; which is what we learn from the example of Sarah, who…”

“Sara--an example of faith. calling him lord-- (Gen 18:12). ye are--Greek, "ye have become": "children" of Abraham and Sara by faith, whereas ye were Gentile aliens from the covenant. afraid with any amazement--Greek, "fluttering alarm," "consternation." Act well, and be not thrown into sudden panic, as weak females are apt to be, by any opposition from without. BENGEL translates, "Not afraid OF any fluttering terror coming from without" (Pe1 3:13-16). So the Septuagint, Pro 3:25 uses the same Greek word, which Peter probably refers to. Anger assails men; fear, women. You need fear no man in doing what is right: not thrown into fluttering agitation by any sudden outbreak of temper on the part…”

“Even as Sara obeyed Abraham - Sarah was one of the most distinguished of the wives of the patriarchs, and her case is referred to as furnishing one of the best illustrations of the duty to which the apostle refers. Nothing is said, in the brief records of her life, of any passion for outward adorning; much is said of her kindness to her husband, and her respect for him. Compare Genesis 12:5; Genesis 18:6. Calling him Lord - See Genesis 18:12. It was probably inferred from this instance, by the apostle, and not without reason, that Sarah habitually used this respectful appellation, acknowledging by it that he was her superior, and that he had a right to rule in his own house. The word lord…”

“Whose children ye are - In a spiritual as well as natural sense, and entitled to the same inheritance, while ye discharge your conjugal duties, not out of fear, but for conscience' sake. Gen 18:12. 1 Peter 3:7”

“3:6 and called him her master: See Gen 18:12. Peter views this address as indicative of Sarah’s overall attitude toward Abraham. • without fear of what your husbands might do: Christian wives married to unbelievers frequently found themselves pressured, both subtly and overtly, to abandon Christian principles and values. Peter urges them to continue to do what is right.”

“as Sara: Gen 18:12 daughters: Gr. children, Rom 9:7-9; Gal 4:22-26 and: Pe1 3:14, Pe1 3:15; Gen 18:15; Isa 57:11; Dan 3:16-18; Mat 26:69-75; Act 4:8-13, Act 4:19 1 Peter 3:7”
