  • Sarah passed away in Kiryat Araba, in Chevron.
  • Avraham mourned over her passing and came to eulogize her.

 

  1. Avraham purchases Mearas Hamachpeila and buries Sarah:
  • Avraham approaches Bnei Cheis to purchase the Mearas Hamachpeila. Bnei Cheis reply that he can bury Sarah wherever he wishes, without any protest.
  • Avraham bows to them [as a sign of greeting] and kindly rejects their offer. He asks to meet with the land owner of the Mearas Hamachpeilah, Efron Hachiti, in order to purchase it from him for its full price.
  • Efron offers the field as a gift: Efron offers Avraham to take the entire field, including the cave, as a present from him, without payment. Avraham once again kindly rejects the offer and asks to purchase the field for its full price. Efron offers Avraham to purchase the land for 400 Shekel Kesef.
  • Avraham paid Efron 400 Shekel Kesef of the best currency.
