Бытие 23

1 Жизни Сарриной было сто двадцать семь лјтъ. Вотъ лјта жизни Сарриной.

2 И умерла Сарра въ Киріаѕ-Арбј (что нынј Хевронъ), въ землј Ханаанской. И пришелъ Авраамъ рыдать по Саррј и оплакивать ее.

3 Потомъ отошелъ Авраамъ отъ умершей своей, и сталъ говорить сынамъ Хетовымъ, и сказалъ:

4 я у васъ пришлецъ и странникъ; дайте мнј въ собственность мјсто для гроба между вами, чтобы мнј умершую мою схоронить отъ глазъ моихъ.

5 Сыны Хета отвјтствовали Аврааму и сказали ему:

6 послушай насъ, господинъ нашъ; ты князь Божій посреди насъ; въ лучшемъ изъ нашихъ погребальныхъ мјстъ похорони умершую твою; никто изъ насъ не откажетъ тебј въ своемъ погребальиомъ мјстј, для погребенія умершей твоей.

7 Авраамъ всталъ, и поклонился народу земли той, сынамъ Хетовымъ.

8 И говорилъ имъ, и сказалъ: если есть у васъ на сердцј позволитъ, чтобы я схороиилъ умершую мою отъ глазъ моихъ: то послушайте меня, исходатайствуйте мнј у Ефрона, сына Цохарова,

9 чтобы онъ отдалъ мнј пещеру Махпелу, которая у него ва концј поля его, чтобы за довольную цјну отдалъ ее мнј посреди васъ, въ собственность для погребенія.

10 Ефронъ же сидјлъ посреди сыновъ Хетовыхъ, и отвјчалъ Ефронъ Хеттеянинъ Аврааму вслухъ сыновъ Хетовыхъ, всјхъ входящихъ во врата города его, и сказалъ:

11 нјтъ, господинъ мой, послушай меня, я дарю тебј поле и пещеру, которая на немъ, дарю тебј, предъ очами сыновъ народа моего, дарю тебј ее, похорони умершую твою.

12 Авраамъ поклонился предъ народомъ земли той,

13 и говорилъ Ефрону вслухъ народа земли той, и сказалъ: сдјлай милость, послушай меня; я дамъ тебј за поле серебро; ты возми у меня, тогда я похороню тамъ умершую мою.

14 Ефронъ отвјтствовалъ Аврааму и сказалъ ему:

15 господинъ мой! послушай меня: земля стоитъ четыреста сиклсй серебра; для меня и для тебя что это? похорони умершую твою.

16 Авраамъ выслушалъ Ефрона, и отвјсилъ Авраамъ Ефрону серебра, сколько онъ объявилъ вслухъ сыновъ Хетовыхъ, тоесть четыреста сиклей серебра, какое ходитъ у купцевъ.

17 Такимъ образомъ поле Ефроново, которое при Махпелј, противъ Мамре, поле и пещера, которая на немъ, и всј деревья, которые на полј во всјхъ предјлахъ его, вокругъ, сдјлалось

18 владјніемъ Авраамовымъ, предъ очами сыновъ Хета, всјхъ входящихъ во врата города его.

19 Послј сего Авраамъ похоронилъ Сарру, жену свою, въ пещерј поля, въ Махпелј, противъ Мамре (что нынј Хевронъ), въ землј Ханаанской.

20 Такъ досталось Аврааму отъ сыновъ Хетовыхъ поле и пещера, которая на немъ, въ собственность для гроба.

3085. These two verses describe the affection for truth - its origin, its nature, and the initial stage of its introduction. Its origin is described by the words 'Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel, the son of Milkah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother'. These words convey in the internal sense the whole origin of that affection, see 3077, 3078. Its nature is described by the words 'her pitcher was on her shoulder', and 'the girl was very good looking'. These words describe its nature, see 3079-3081. The initial stage of its introduction is described by the words 'she went down to the spring, and filled her pitcher, and went up', as may be seen in 3082-3084. But these considerations, as stated above, are beyond the grasp not only of any ordinary human intellect but also of one that is more advanced. For such is the nature of the things contained in the internal sense in this chapter and in some of those that follow.

[2] The reason for this is that the idea can hardly enter anyone's head that there is a constant Divine influx by way of the internal man into the external man - that is, the idea that celestial and spiritual things flow by way of the rational man into the natural man, or what amounts to the same, into the natural things belonging to the external. Also, the idea that by means of that influx truths are constantly being summoned out of the natural man, raised up, and implanted in the good that is present in the rational can hardly enter in. And if not even these things are known to take place, what possibility is there of anyone knowing how the whole process takes place, a process involving wisdom so great, as it is from the Divine, that not the tiniest fraction can ever be explored? Only its most general aspects can be seen.

[3] This therefore being so, let no one be surprised that the things present here in the internal sense cannot be described intelligibly, and the things which are described are beyond human comprehension, for they have reference to and describe that process. Furthermore the internal sense exists chiefly for angels, to the end that by means of the Word communication may exist between heaven and man; and to the angels these things are among such as give them great delight, because food in heaven consists of everything that constitutes intelligence and wisdom. And to them the blessedness of wisdom and intelligence consists in whatever has the Lord as its subject.
