Genesis 23:9

23:9 if he will sell ³  me the cave of Machpelah that belongs to him; it is at the end of his field. Let him sell it to me publicly ⁴  for the full price, ⁵  so that I may own it as a burial site.”

¹ tn Heb “heavy.”

² tn This parenthetical clause, introduced by the vav (ו) disjunctive (translated “now”), provides information necessary to the point of the story.

³ tn Heb “give.” This is used here (also a second time later in this verse) as an idiom for “sell”; see the note on the word “grant” in v. 4.

⁴ tn Heb “in your presence.”

⁵ tn Heb “silver.”
