That Sarah was past the age of childbearing and that Abraham was an old man are both facts. Any competent medical or childbirth authority could have looked at them and declared that if they wanted kids they'd better think about adoption -or perhaps using the services of their servant Hagar. These things are clearly laid out in the Bible. However, the plain and explicit truth is that God had declared that Sarah would bear Abraham a child in fulfillment of His covenant with Abraham.
Ishmael was the offspring of fact, but Isaac was the son of truth.
Our God is a God of truth.
