Certainly. I was sitting by my tent in the middle of the day when I suddenly saw three strangers standing there. I ran over to offer them hospitality, some water to wash their feet and something to eat. They accepted, and then I ran to the tent to ask Sarah…

Reporter (interrupting)
Thank you, Abraham. Let's hear from Sarah what happened next.

Sarah
Abraham came rushing in and asked me to make some special cakes for the visitors. I had to go and get the expensive flour out of the store.

Reporter
And then what happened?

Abraham
I ran and found a calf that was ready to be killed and eaten, and gave it to the servant to cook. By the time it was ready, it was getting late!

Servant
Yes, I can vouch for that – I spent a long time preparing it.

Reporter
So, let's talk now about the visitors. After you had eaten – I understand they revealed some very strange information.

Abraham
Yes, they told Sarah that in a few months she would have a baby.

Reporter
And what was Sarah's reaction? After all, she's a bit old to be having a baby now.

Abraham
She laughed.

Reporter
So there you have it (name of newsreader) . Sarah has been told she will be pregnant soon; perhaps we will return to this strange story in a few months' time. This is (name of reporter) reporting live from Mamre.
