Bible Comments

Rachel was buried in the way to Ephrath Not in the city, though it was near; for in ancient times their sepulchres were not in places of resort, but in places separated and out of the cities, Matthew 27:60;

Luke 7:12. If the soul be at rest, the matter is not great where the body lies. In the place where the tree falls there let it lie.
