Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 1. - And Sarah was an hundred and seven and twenty years old (literally, and the lives of Sarah were an hundred and twenty and seven years); so that Isaac must have been thirty-seven, having been born in his mother's ninetieth year. Sarah, as the wife of Abraham and the mother of believers (Isaiah 51:2; 1 Peter 3:6), is the only woman whose age is mentioned in Scripture. These were the years of the life of Sarah - an emphatic repetition designed to impress the Israelitish mind with the importance of remembering the age of their ancestress.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English ReadersXXIII.DEATH AND BURIAL OF SARAH.(1) Sarah was an hundred and seven and twenty years old.--Sarah is the only woman whose age at her death is mentioned in the Bible, an honour doubtless given her as the ancestress of the Hebrew race (Isaiah 51:2). As she was ninety at Isaac's birth, he would now be thirty-seven years of age.
