Footnotes
- 1 Heb “And the years of Sarah were one hundred years and twenty years and seven years, the years of the life of Sarah.”
- 2 Heb “Sarah.” The proper name has been replaced in the translation by the pronoun (“she”) for stylistic reasons.
- 3 Mourn … weep. The description here is of standard mourning rites (see K. A. Kitchen, NBD3 ). They would have been carried out in the presence of the corpse, probably in Sarah’s tent. So Abraham came in to mourn; then he rose up to go and bury his dead (v. 3).
