Genesis 25:10
The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife.
The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth,.... Of one of them, Ephron, the rest being witnesses of it, Genesis 23:16;
there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife; Sarah had been buried there thirty eight years before, which was the reason why his sons buried, him there; if he died in Beersheba, as seems probable, see
Genesis 24:62; from thence to Hebron were sixteen miles {h}; so far was he carried to be interred.
