23
여호와께서 그에게 이르시되 두 국민이 네 태 중에 있구나 두 민족이 네 복 중에서부터 나누이리라 이 족속이, 저 족속보다 강하겠고 큰 자는 어린 자를 섬기리라 하셨더라
창세기 25:23

3257. 'At the cave of Machpelah' means resurrection as regards truth.
'At the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which faced Mamre' means as regards good; also meant, as previously, are those who are spiritual, who receive truth and good from the Lord's Divine Human and are saved.
'The field which Abraham bought from the sons of Heth' means the Lord's spiritual kingdom resulting from this.
'There Abraham was buried and Sarah his wife' means resurrection.
This may be seen from what has been stated and shown already about the meaning of all these statements in Chapter 23, in 2913, 2928, 2968-2971, 2975, 2980, and about the meaning of 'burying' in 2916, 2917.
