Description

Why is the Parsha called Chayei Sara if it begins with Sara's death? Why does Avraham insist so strongly on purchasing her burial place, Ma'arat HaMachpelah? We explore the essence and definition of kinyan, acquisition, how it relates to the purchase of Sara's burial place, and how it is the thread binds together all of Chayei Sara.
