You may relate Sarah to the Abraham and Sarah story inthe Bible.

fruit, it's an odd word the bible uses, as if we are all merely some sort of quasi-vegetables, but maybe many are . . . simply fruit

If a woman gave birth to a pear or an apple or a strawberry it'd be a miracle - fruit is a ridiculous word for a so-called holy book in this context - even the word sheep would be more to the point

Let's enjoy the irony... Sarah doubted she could give birth as she was barren. But there is a question of 'faith' and 'prophesy', the story of the kingdom of God: we're too weak to fulfill our simple dreams!
