Rebekah is riding on the camel. Abraham's servant is walking beside her. She is going with the servant to Abraham's home. But why does she leave her father and mother to go to Abraham's home ? It is because she is going to be married to Isaac. Isaac is Abraham's son. Abraham has sent his servant to find a wife for Isaac. And the servant came to the well and saw Rebekah. And when she had given him a drink from her pitcher, he went home with her and saw her father and mother. Then he talked with them and told them why he had come. He said that Abraham was his master and that God had made Abraham very rich; he had given him silver and gold and flocks and herds of cattle and camels. And all these things Isaac would have after Abraham was dead. Then the servant told them that Abraham had sent him to find a wife for Isaac, and he asked them if Rebekah might go with him to be Isaac's wife. And they asked her if she would go with the man, and she said she would go. (42/399) |
