Context — The Death and Burial of Sarah
7Then Abraham rose and bowed down before the people of the land, the Hittites.
8“If you are willing for me to bury my dead,” he said to them, “listen to me, and approach Ephron son of Zohar on my behalf
9to sell me the cave of Machpelah that belongs to him; it is at the end of his field. Let him sell it to me in your presence for full price, so that I may have a burial site.”
10Now Ephron was sitting among the sons of Heth. So in the presence of all the Hittites who had come to the gate of his city, Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham, 11“No, my lord. Listen to me. I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. I give it to you in the presence of my people. Bury your dead.”Cross References

By following Abraham's example, we can demonstrate our love and respect for others, and reflect the character of God in our lives.]

Gill's Exposition on Genesis 23:9
That he may, give me the cave of Machpelah, which he hath, which [is] in the end of his field,.... The Targum of Jonathan renders it, "the double cave", and so do the Septuagint and Vulgate Latin
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Genesis 23:9
That he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he hath, which is in the end of his field; for as much money as it is worth he shall give it me for a possession of a buryingplace amongst you. Machpelah - signifies double.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Genesis 23:9
Machpelah, which seems to be the proper name of the place, ,19, so called from its duplicity, because the cave was double, either one for men, and another for women; or the one served only for an entrance into the other, which was the burying-place. For as much money as it is worth; Heb. for full money, ,24; i.e. for money of full weight, answerable to its worth.
Trapp's Commentary on Genesis 23:9
Genesis 23:9 That he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he hath, which [is] in the end of his field; for as much money as it is worth he shall give it me for a possession of a buryingplace amongst you.Ver. 9. For a possession of a burying place.] It is remarkable that the first purchase of possession mentioned in Scripture, was a place to bury in, not to build in. The Jews also had their sepulchres hewn out long before their deaths, to mind them of their mortality. Joseph of Arimathea had his tomb in his garden, to season his delights with the meditation of his end. The Egyptians had a death’ s head carried about the table at their feasts. The emperors of Constantinople had a mason who came to them on their Coronation Day with choice of tomb stones, and these verses in his mouth - “ Elige ab his saxis ex quo (invictissime Caesar) Ipse tibi tumulum me fabricare velis .” Our first parents, saith one, made them garments of fig leaves; but God, misliking that, gave them garments of skins. So in the gospel he cursed the fig tree, which did bear only leaves to cover our sin, but commended the Baptist who did wear skins to discover our mortality. Dr Playfair.
Ellicott's Commentary on Genesis 23:9
(9) The cave of Machpelah.—That is, the double cave, consisting probably of an outer and an inner compartment. As the land around is also called “the field of Machpelah” (Genesis 49:30; Genesis 1:13), some imagine that it was the valley that was double; but more probably’it took its name from the cavern. For a description of the Haram, within which the bones of Abraham and Sarah probably still lie, see Palmer, Desert of the Exodus, p. 397; Stanley, Sinai and Palestine, p. 101; and also the Appendix to his Sermons in the East.For as much money as it is worth.—Heb., for full silver, rendered “the full price” in 1 Chronicles 21:22. A buryingplace amongst you.—This translation is quite wrong. Abraham had no wish that Sarah should be buried amongst the Hittites, but required that the sale should be duly attested. The Heb. is. Let him give it me in the midst of you (that is, in a general assembly of the people), for a possession and a buryingplace.
Cambridge Bible on Genesis 23:9
9. the cave of Machpelah] Machpelah is not the name of the cave, but of the locality; cf. 17, Genesis 49:30, Genesis 50:12. The old explanation that the cave was so called, because it was “a double cave,” has therefore been questioned; but the LXX and the Lat. both render Machpelah as if it were the equivalent of “double,” LXX τὸσπήλαιοντὸδιπλοῦν, Vulg. speluncam duplicem. The name in the Hebrew always has the article, as an appellative or descriptive noun. The tradition of the cave being a double one is continuously maintained. Its correctness is indisputable. in the end of his field] Abraham here only asks for the cave at one end of the field of Machpelah. for the full price] Lit. “for full silver”; cf. 1 Chronicles 21:22. The payment was to be full value and in good money. See note on Genesis 23:16. The expression is one which was also current in the Assyrian language.
Whedon's Commentary on Genesis 23:9
9. Machpelah — This is to be regarded as a proper name applied both to the cave and to the field in which it was located. Comp. Genesis 23:17; Genesis 23:19.
