SEV Biblia, Chapter 23:16

¶ Entonces Abraham se convino con Efrón, y pesó Abraham a Efrón el dinero que dijo, oyéndolo los hijos de Het, cuatrocientos siclos de plata, corrientes por los mercaderes.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 23:16

Verse 16. Current with the
merchant] rjsl rb[ ober lassocher, passing to or with the traveler - such as was commonly used by those who traveled about with merchandise of any sort. The word signifies the same as hawker or pedlar among us.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 14-20 -
Prudence, as well as justice, directs us to be fair and open in ou dealings; cheating bargains will not bear the light. Abraham, withou fraud or delay, pays the money. He pays it at once in full, withou keeping any part back; and by weight, current money with the merchant without deceit. See how anciently money was used for the help of trade and how honestly it should be paid when it is due. Though all the lan of Canaan was Abraham by promise, yet the time of his possessing it no being come, what he had occasion for he bought and paid for. Dominio is not founded in grace. The saints' title to an eternal inheritanc does not entitle them to the possessions of this world, nor justif them in doing wrong. Ephron honestly and fairly makes a good title to the land. As that which is bought, must be honestly paid for, so tha which is sold, must be honestly delivered and secured. Let us manag our concerns with punctuality and exactness, in order to avoi contention. Abraham buried Sarah in cave. or vault, which was in the purchased field. It would tend to endear the land to his posterity. An it is worth noting, that a burying-place was the only piece of the lan which Abraham possessed in Canaan. Those who have least of this earth find a grave in it. This sepulchre was at the end of the field whatever our possessions are, there is a burial-place at the end of them. It was a token of his belief and expectation of the resurrection Abraham is contented to be still a pilgrim while he lives, but secure a place where, when he dies, his flesh may rest in hope. After all, the chief concern is, with whom we shall rise __________________________________________________________________
