The Cave of Treasures 46
The Death of Sárá; Isaac and Rebecca
After Sara died, Abraham married Kentórá, daughter of Baktór the desert king, who bore him six named sons.
1nd when Sara, the wife of Abraham, died, Abraham took to wife Kentórá, the daughter of Baktór, the king of the desert. And there were born unto him by her Zamran, and Yakshán, and Mádhàn, and Medhyán, and Ashbák, and Shóh. And from these are sprung the Arabs. And when Isaac was forty years old, Eliezer, a son of the house of Abraham, went down and brought Rabká (Rebecca) from the east, and Isaac took her to wife.
2 And when Abraham died Isaac buried him by the side of Sara. And when Isaac was sixty years old Rebecca became with child of Esau and Jacob. And being sorely afflicted, she went to Melchisedek, and he prayed over her and said unto her, “Two nations are in thy womb, and two peoples shall be removed from thy loins, that is to say, shall go forth from thy womb. One nation shall be stronger than the other, and the elder shall be in subjection to the younger, that is to say, Esau shall be in subjection to Jacob.”
