1 サラの一生は二十七年であった。これがサラの生きながらえた年である。

2 サラカナンの地のキリアテ・アルバすなわちヘブロンで死んだ。アブラハムは中にはいってサラのために悲しみ泣いた。

3 アブラハムは死人のそばから立って、ヘテの人々に言った、

4 「わたしはあなたがたのうちの旅の者で寄留者ですが、わたしの死人を出して葬るため、あなたがたのうちにわたしの所有として一つの地をください」。

5 ヘテの人々はアブラハムに答えて言った、

6 「わがよ、お聞きなさい。あなたはわれわれのうちにおられて、神のような君です。われわれの地の最も良い所にあなたの死人を葬りなさい。その地を拒んで、あなたにその死人を葬らせない者はわれわれのうちには、ひとりもないでしょう」。

7 アブラハムは立ちあがり、その地の民ヘテの人々に礼をして、

8 彼らに言った、「もしわたしの死人を葬るのに同意されるなら、わたしの願いをいれて、わたしのためにゾハルのエフロンに頼み、

9 彼が持っているの端のマクペラのほら穴をじゅうぶんな代価でわたしに与え、あなたがたのうちに地を持たせてください」。

10 時にエフロンはヘテの人々のうちにすわっていた。そこでヘテびとエフロンはヘテの人々、すなわちすべてそのにはいる人々の聞いているところで、アブラハムに答えて言った、

11 「いいえ、わがよ、お聞きなさい。わたしはあのをあなたにさしあげます。またその中にあるほら穴もさしあげます。わたしの民の人々の前で、それをさしあげます。あなたの死人を葬りなさい」。

12 アブラハムはその地の民ので礼をし、

13 その地の民の聞いているところでエフロンに言った、「あなたがそれを承諾されるなら、お聞きなさい。わたしはそのの代価を払います。お受け取りください。わたしの死人をそこに葬りましょう」。

14 エフロンアブラハムに答えて言った、

15 「わがよ、お聞きなさい。あの地はシケルですが、これはわたしとあなたの間で、なにほどのことでしょう。あなたの死人を葬りなさい」。

16 そこでアブラハムエフロンの言葉にしたがい、エフロンがヘテの人々の聞いているところで言った、すなわち商人の通用シケルを量ってエフロンに与えた。

17 こうしてマムレののマクペラにあるエフロンは、も、その中のほら穴も、の中およびその周囲の境にあるすべてのも皆、

18 ヘテの人々の前、すなわちそのにはいるすべての人々の前で、アブラハムの所有と決まった。

19 そのアブラハムはそのサラカナンの地にあるマムレ、すなわちヘブロンのマクペラののほら穴に葬った。

20 このようにとその中にあるほら穴とはヘテの人々によってアブラハムの所有の地と定められた。

2937. 'For the full price' means redemption by means of truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'silver' as truth, dealt with in 1551, and from the meaning of 'let him give it to me in - that is, for - silver', as buying, and in the spiritual sense as redeeming. For spiritual people are called 'those bought with silver', see 2048; that is, they are redeemed by means of truth. The reason for this is that they are being regenerated, that is to say, are being initiated into good, by means of the truth of faith. For the spiritual man, unlike the celestial, does not have any perception of good. Instead he knows through truth, and after that acknowledges from truth, that which is good. And when he acknowledges and believes, truth to him becomes good and he experiences it as good whose essential nature is the same as the truth with him. This is why spiritual people are called those redeemed by means of truth. Yet the essential nature of the good is not born and produced from truth, but from the influx of good into truth of that nature.

Genesis 23

1 Sarah lived one hundred twenty-seven years. This was the length of Sarah's life.

2 Sarah died in Kiriath Arba (the same is Hebron), in the land of Canaan. Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.

3 Abraham rose up from before his dead, and spoke to the children of Heth, saying,

4 "I am a stranger and a foreigner living with you. Give me a possession of a burying-place with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight."

5 The children of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him,

6 "Hear us, my lord. You are a prince of God among us. Bury your dead in the best of our tombs. None of us will withhold from you his tomb. Bury your dead."

7 Abraham rose up, and bowed himself to the people of the land, even to the children of Heth.

8 He talked with them, saying, "If it be your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and entreat for me to Ephron the son of Zohar,

9 that he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he has, which is in the end of his field. For the full price let him give it to me among you for a possession of a burying-place."

10 Now Ephron was sitting in the middle of the children of Heth. Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the hearing of the children of Heth, even of all who went in at the gate of his city, saying,

11 "No, my lord, hear me. I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. In the presence of the children of my people I give it to you. Bury your dead."

12 Abraham bowed himself down before the people of the land.

13 He spoke to Ephron in the audience of the people of the land, saying, "But if you will, please hear me. I will give the price of the field. Take it from me, and I will bury my dead there."

14 Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him,

15 "My lord, listen to me. What is a piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver between me and you? Therefore bury your dead."

16 Abraham listened to Ephron. Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver which he had named in the audience of the children of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, according to the current merchants' standard.

17 So the field of Ephron, which was in Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field, the cave which was in it, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all of its borders, were deeded

18 to Abraham for a possession in the presence of the children of Heth, before all who went in at the gate of his city.

19 After this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah before Mamre (that is, Hebron), in the land of Canaan.

20 The field, and the cave that is in it, were deeded to Abraham for a possession of a burying place by the children of Heth.
