Holidays are over ! Yesterday night, during offshore call, it didn't even seem like there was a gap. I guess it might've been because of not being fully well last week.
Genesis 23
Sarah dies at the age of 127 at Hebron. Abraham goes to the Hittites and asks them to sell him a burial ground. He says he is a foreigner in the land and he doesn't own any burial ground. The Hittites tell him that they look upon him as a mighty leader and he could take any land that he likes. They ask him which land he would prefer. He says that he would like to buy Machpelah Cave that belong to Ephron. Ephron who is present in the group tells him that he can have it. But Abraham insists on paying money for it. Ephron quotes 400 silver coins and Abraham pays that amount and buys the field and the cave.
