The Bible's Tip for Longevity
by Rabbi Shmuel Marcus
What is the Jewish view on buying a burial plot for your self? Should one wait till the actual time of need, thereby showing their faith that they may live forever? Or should one purchase a plot at a young age?
In the Torah, Abraham is the first recorded Hebrew to purchase a plot for his wife, Sarah. She had died and he purchased a plot for her and at the same time (drumroll please) he bought a plot for himself.
What is amazing is in Torah's very next words: "and Abraham lived a very long time". It's a verse that does not flow with the story. It seems interjected here for a reason. Our Sages all agree that it's a clear message for us. Simply put: buy yourself a plot and you will live a very long life.
It's not a bad omen to talk to Rabbi and arrange your afterlife needs. It's actually a blessing. It's a merit for you and those around you. With less stress and worry, may we all live long and prosper. Amen.
