Matthew Henry on Genesis 21:2
He was born at the set time of which God had spoken, v. 2. Note, God is always punctual to his time; though his promised mercies come not at the time we set, they will certainly come at the time he sets, and that is the best time. 2. He was born by virtue of the promise: Sarah by faith received strength to conceive Heb. xi. 11. God therefore by promise gave that strength.
