The Bible Says
创世记 23:17-20 含义

这一集以所发生事情的总结结束。亚伯拉罕现在在迦南拥有土地。在给了人以弗仑四百舍客勒银子之后,以弗仑在幔利对面麦比拉的那块田地就归亚伯拉罕。他购买的财产包括田地和田地里的洞穴。显然,洞穴是亚伯拉罕主要想要的,作为坟墓。但他也得到了一块田地洞穴。亚伯拉罕还获得了田地里的所有树木。树木被提及为购买价格的一部分可能表明,财产可以出售,但树木的所有权保留。在这种情况下,很明显,以弗仑不再有权进入并砍伐树木。它们是随交易而来的。包括的树木具体是指在其边界范围内的树木。这些树木也作为财产转让给亚伯拉罕。

这次购买是在赫人之子和其他赫梯人的见证下完成的,所有进入城门的人都在场,城门是古代世界进行此类交易的场所,或做出裁决以解决争端的地方。

买下这块地之后,亚伯拉罕为他已故的妻子埋葬了一块地。他把妻子撒拉埋葬在迦南地幔利(即希伯仑)对面的麦比拉田间的洞穴里。

最后一节再次强调,亚伯拉罕合法拥有这块田地和洞穴赫人将这块财产转让给亚伯拉罕作为埋葬之地。

重复这一句强调了购买的有效性。这一情节的目的是表明亚伯拉罕终于成为应许之地的土地所有者,他的家人将在那里生活、死亡和埋葬,这是对上帝承诺的忠诚信任的标志(创世记 12:7,创世记 15:18-21)。
