From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Sarah
     princess, the wife and at the same time the half-sister of
     Abraham (Gen. 11:29; 20:12). This name was given to her at the
     time that it was announced to Abraham that she should be the
     mother of the promised child. Her story is from her marriage
     identified with that of the patriarch till the time of her
     death. Her death, at the age of one hundred and twenty-seven
     years (the only instance in Scripture where the age of a woman
     is recorded), was the occasion of Abraham's purchasing the cave
     of Machpelah as a family burying-place.
     
       In the allegory of Gal. 4:22-31 she is the type of the
     "Jerusalem which is above." She is also mentioned as Sara in
     Heb. 11:11 among the Old Testament worthies, who "all died in
     faith." (See {ABRAHAM}.)
