Bury is an obsolete term that was removed from the vocabulary of Magic in the Tempest set. All cards that used the term were given errata in the Oracle card reference to instead read "Destroy [something]. It can't be regenerated." or "Sacrifice [something]."

Examples

Prior to the rule change, the 5th Edition wording of Wrath of God was as follows:

Wrath of God received errata after Tempest was released to read "Destroy all creatures. Those creatures cannot be regenerated this turn." When 6th Edition, this wording was simplified further to the modern "Destroy all creatures. They can't be regenerated."

Some cards used "bury" as a general term for putting something into a player's graveyard, usually by sacrificing it. These cards received errata to indicate exactly what was to be done with them. For example, Urborg Justice and Call of the Wild from Weatherlight used "bury" to indicate two different things; they received errata to state specifically what.
