GEN793 Sarah does not dispute Abraham’s fears.  She proceeds to tell the lie Abraham asked her to related, and even stands by it when the king takes her into his home.  Only when God sends a plague on Pharaoh’s house does the Egyptian monarch learn that Sarah is a married woman, and he immediately releases her.  Abraham lies about this matter once again Genesis, chapter 20) and his son Isaac acts in the same way Genesis 26:6-11. On none of these occasions does God express displeasure with what Abraham or Isaac has done (since God communicates with the Patriarchs on other occasions, He could have easily expressed disapproval of their actions).  TELVOL 1:427
