Ephron (Genesis 23:8, 17) signifies people who may receive the good and truth of faith.

(Референце: Arcana Coelestia 2933, 2969)

2933. 'And intercede for me with Ephron the son of Zohar' means those with whom the good and truth of faith could be received. This becomes clear from the fact that the field, and the cave in the field where Sarah was to be buried, was Ephron's. And because burial means regeneration, 2916, it follows that Ephron means those with whom the good and truth of faith could be received. 'The sons of Heth' too represents the same, insofar as they belonged to Ephron's city and insofar as they were people of that city. 'Interceding' here means being made ready to receive.
