2956. Verses 14-15. And Ephron answered Abraham, saying unto him, My lord, hear me; land of four hundred shekels of silver, what is that between me and thee? Bury therefore thy dead. “Ephron answered Abraham, saying unto him,” signifies a state of reception; “My lord, hear me,” signifies the first state of reception; “land of four hundred shekels of silver,” signifies the price of redemption by means of truth; “what is that between me and thee?” signifies that he gave his assent, but still desired it to be from himself; “bury therefore thy dead,” signifies here as before, emerging from night, and a consequent resuscitation.
