'Bought' in the Bible
So I bought the shorts as the Lord had told me to do and put them on.
"Take the shorts that you bought and are wearing and go at once to Perath. Bury the shorts there in a crack in the rocks."
So I bought the field at Anathoth from my cousin Hanamel. I weighed out seven ounces of silver and gave it to him to pay for it.
For the Lord God of Israel who rules over all says, "Houses, fields, and vineyards will again be bought in this land."'
You and your people are saying that this land will become desolate, uninhabited by either people or animals. You are saying that it will be handed over to the Babylonians. But fields will again be bought in this land.
Fields will again be bought with silver, and deeds of purchase signed, sealed, and witnessed. This will happen in the territory of Benjamin, the villages surrounding Jerusalem, the towns in Judah, the southern hill country, the western foothills, and southern Judah. For I will restore them to their land. I, the Lord, affirm it!'"
