Genesis 23
Hey hey, chit-chatters! We’re back with Episode 14, and today we’re heading into Genesis 23—aka the one where Sarah passes away (cue the sad violin) and Abraham becomes a first-time landowner. Yep, there’s grief, there’s real estate, and there’s a surprisingly heartfelt lesson in buying a burial plot.
It might not sound like the most exciting chapter, but trust us—this one’s got layers. Like, ancient-Middle-Eastern-customs-meet-God’s-promises kind of layers.
Sarah dies 😢 (but don’t worry—we’re handling it with love and maybe a few light jokes)
Abraham negotiates like a boss for a cave in Hebron
Why this land deal is actually a huge faith move
And how to hold onto hope, even when you’re holding a funeral
🪦 Grief (it’s real, but we don’t have to be weird about it)
🧾 Paperwork and promises
📍God giving a GPS pin to the future homeland
Abraham’s buying a tomb, but really, he’s making a statement: God’s promises are still on the table. Even in death, there’s faith. Even in loss, there’s legacy. And also—he probably overpaid for that cave. (But hey, it’s for Sarah.)
