genesis 23:3 Then Abraham rose from before his dead, and spoke to the sons of Heth, saying,


      Ge 23:3-20. PURCHASE OF A BURYING-PLACE.

      3. Abraham stood up, &c.--Eastern people are always provided with family burying-places; but Abraham's life of faith--his pilgrim state--had prevented him acquiring even so small a possession (Ac 7:5).
      spake unto the sons of Heth--He bespoke their kind offices to aid him in obtaining possession of a cave that belonged to Ephron--a wealthy neighbor.
