This week we cover Genesis 23 and 24. In Genesis 23 Abraham buys a burial tomb (and field) for his wife Sarah and for his family line to use. Later in history, it is the location where Abraham, Isaac and Jacob would all be buried (along with their spouses).
In Genesis 24 we see Abraham send the head of his household to his old homeland to find a bride for his son Isaac. In the process, we see a glimpse into the customs of the culture of the day. We also see Abraham’s servant “put out a fleece” in asking the Lord to specifically show his support of a decision by doing a specifically requested act.
