Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of Uganda: And the Victoria Nyanza Mission ´A Possession of a burying-place´ was the first thing acquired by the patriarch of old in the land which was promised to him and to his heirs for ever. A woman´s funeral inaugurated the beginning of Abraham´s ownership in Canaan. As the mournful procession passed up the field and beneath the spreading trees of Machpelah, to the cave which was to be Sarah´s last earthly resting-place, did there pass before the tear-dimmed eyes of her husband a vision of the future, when one of his children´s children should be crowned as king in the neighbouring city of Hebron? Under the teaching of the Spirit of God he looked for something even higher - for a ´city which hath foundations, whose Builder and Maker is God.´ Yet the purpose of God was to be fulfilled literally. And as the long years passed away, others beside Sarah were interred in the same spot, while the body of Jacob´s beloved wife Rachel, was laid to rest some miles further north, at Bethlehem. These graves were as a seal set upon the land of Canaan, marking it out as the inheritance of the people whom God had chosen.
