2926. Verses 7-8 And Abraham rose up and bowed to the people of the land, to the sons of Heth. And he spoke to them, saying, If you are willing 1 to let me bury my dead from before me, hear me and intercede for me with Ephron the son of Zohar.
'Abraham rose up and bowed' means the Lord's joy at being received so kindly. 'To the people of the land, to the sons of Heth' means by those who belonged to the new spiritual Church. 'He spoke to them, saying' means thought and perception concerning those people. 'If you are willing' means if on account of an affection for truth coming from the heart. 'To let me bury my dead from before me' means that they wished to emerge from night and rise again. 'Hear me' means that they were to comply. 'And intercede for me with Ephron the son of Zohar' means those with whom the good and truth of faith could be received.
