Death and Burial of Sarah

Now Sarah lived 127 years; these were the years of the life of Sarah.

Then Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent, and he took Rebekah, and she became his wife, and he loved her; so Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.

Abraham’s Death

Now Abraham took another wife, whose name was Keturah.

It came about after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac lived by Beer-lahai-roi.

So Abimelech commanded all the people, saying, “He who touches this man or his wife will certainly be put to death.”

Argument over the Wells

Then Isaac dug again the wells of water which had been dug in the days of his father Abraham, for the Philistines had stopped them up after the death of Abraham; and he gave them the same names which his father had given them.

Then Isaac said, “Behold now, I am old and I do not know the day of my death.

‘Bring me some game and prepare a delicious meal for me, so that I may eat, and bless you in the presence of the Lord before my death.’

Then you shall bring it to your father, that he may eat, so that he may bless you before his death.”

The Plot against Joseph

When they saw him from a distance, and before he came closer to them, they plotted against him to put him to death.

Then Reuben spoke to his father, saying, “You may put my two sons to death if I do not bring him back to you; put him in my care, and I will return him to you.”

Death of Joseph

Now Joseph stayed in Egypt, he and his father’s household, and Joseph lived 110 years.
