2587、“撒拉的事”表示如果它已经将自己联结，就是通过理性。这从“撒拉”的代表清楚可知，作为妹子的“撒拉”是指理性真理（参看2508节）。“撒拉的事”表示整个事件，即：她被称为妹子，亚比米勒取了她，但未亲近她。下一节将说明这些话还表示什么。
Potts(1905-1910) 2587
2587. Because of the word of Sarah. That this signifies by reason of the rational if it had conjoined itself, is evident from the representation of "Sarah" as a sister, as being rational truth (see n. 2508). The "word of Sarah" signifies the whole transaction, namely, that she was called a sister, and that Abimelech took her, but that he did not come near her. What these things signify further will be told in what follows.
Elliott(1983-1999) 2587
2587. 'Because of the matter of Sarah' means through the rational if it had joined itself. This is clear from the representation of 'Sarah when a sister' as rational truth, dealt with in 2508. 'The matter of Sarah' means the whole affair, that is to say, of her being called a sister, and of Abimelech's taking her, but not going near her. What more is meant by these things will be stated in what follows immediately below.
Latin(1748-1756) 2587
2587. `Propter verbum Sarae': quod significet per rationale si se conjunxisset, constat a repraesentatione `Sarae ut sororis' quod sit verum rationale, de qua n. 2508; `verbum Sarae' significat omnem rem transactam, quod nempe soror dicta, quod Abimelechus acceperit illam, sed quod non appropinquaverit ad illam: quid porro haec significant, in mox sequentibus dicetur.
