2062. 'Sarai your wife' means truth joined to good. This is clear from the meaning of 'Sarai' as intellectual truth, and because the word 'wife' is added here, as that truth joined to good. That 'Sarai' and 'Sarai his wife' mean truth joined to good has been shown already in 1468, 1901, and frequently elsewhere.
