3250. Verses 7-10. And these are the days of the years of the lives of Abraham, which he lived; a hundred years, and seventy years, and five years. And Abraham expired and died in a good old age, an old man and sated, and was gathered to his peoples. And Isaac and Ishmael his sons buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is before Mamre; the field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife. “And these are the days of the years of the lives of Abraham, which he lived,” signifies the state representative by Abraham of the Lord as to the Divine Itself; “a hundred years, and seventy years, and five years,” signifies the things that belong to this state; “and Abraham expired and died,” signifies the end of the representation by Abraham; “in a good old age, an old man and sated,” signifies something new in the representation; “and was gathered to his peoples,” signifies that these things were concerning Abraham; “and Isaac and Ishmael his sons buried him,” signifies that the representative of the Lord was now taken up by Isaac and Ishmael; “in the cave of Machpelah,” signifies resurrection as to truth; “in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is before Mamre,” signifies as to good; it also signifies the spiritual, as above, who receive truth and good from the Lord’s Divine Human, and are saved; “the field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth,” signifies the Lord’s spiritual kingdom thence derived; “there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife,” signifies resuscitation.
