Chapter 151


1

Then was word brought unto us, that Sarah was gone unto Hebron, wherefore we journeyed there and found that Sarah had died.

2

But having inquired after the manner of her death, we rejoiced that she went with the promise of exaltation and that she died knowing of Isaac's salvation and his acceptance with God.

3

Then we took Sarah unto a cave which I purchased of Ephron the Hittite for that purpose and we buried her there and we wept over her, yet we rejoiced in her righteousness before God.

4

And all the people of the land came to honor Sarah with Pharaoh who came from Egypt and Abimelech from Gerar and many others who honored and loved Sarah.

5

For she was truly an handmaiden of the Lord and ministered unto many in the name of the Lord in love and charity and was greatly loved by all for her kindness and meekness and her great wisdom in godliness.
