Sarah died in 2145 AM, having lived for 127 years. Upon her death, Abraham bought a burial cave at [[Machpelah |Mearat Machpelah]] (the Cave of the Patriarchs) to bury her in. He himself was buried later in the same place. Eventually all the patriarchs and all the matriarchs but [[Rachel]] would be buried there.<ref>{{Bible ref|book=Genesis|chap=23}}</ref>
