Book I, Ch. 14 — Concerning Sarah Abraham's Wife; And How She Ended Her Days.

Antiquities of the Jews · Flavius Josephus

Now Sarah died a little while after, having lived one hundred and twenty-seven years. They buried her in Hebron; the Canaanites publicly allowing them a burying-place; which piece of ground Abraham bought for four hundred shekels, of Ephron, an inhabitant of Hebron. And both Abraham and his descendants built themselves sepulchers in that place.
