Reply To: Tzinus – Both Views are Correct

Here is a source:

Avraham and Sorah were on their way to Egypt. Avraham said to Sorah “See now, I have known that you are a woman of beautiful apprearance…” (12:11). Rashi wrote: Avraham was not aware of the beauty because of the extreme Tznius of both.

When they were crossing the river on the way, HaShem caused Avraham to see a reflection of Sorah in the water, this was the first time that Avraham noticed her beauty. (I heard this on a tape from R’M.M. Weiss)

Besides this being a source, if not the source, it also provides (additional) support for the position I wrote above.
