Open this scene in the reader →17So Ephron’s field at Machpelah, which was before Mamre—the field, the cave that was in it, and every tree in the field, within all its surrounding border—was confirmed
18to Abraham as a possession before the eyes of the sons of Heth, before all who entered the gate of his city.
19After this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah, facing Mamre (that is, Hebron), in the land of Canaan.
20So the field and the cave that was in it were deeded to Abraham as a burial property from the sons of Heth.
