Genesis 24:55-67
24:55 But Rebekah’s
brother and her mother replied, “Let the girl stay with us a few more days, perhaps ten. Then she can go.”
24:56 But he said to them, “Don’t detain me – the
Lord has granted me success on my journey. Let me leave now so I may return
to my master.”
24:57 Then they said, “We’ll call the girl and find out what she wants to do.”
24:58 So they called Rebekah and asked her, “Do you want
to go with this man?” She replied, “I want to go.”
24:59 So they sent their sister Rebekah on her way, accompanied by her female attendant, with Abraham’s servant and his men.
24:60 They blessed Rebekah with these words:
“Our sister, may you become the mother of thousands of ten thousands!
May your descendants possess the strongholds of their enemies.”
24:61 Then Rebekah and her female servants mounted the camels and rode away with the man. So Abraham’s servant took Rebekah and left.
24:62 Now Isaac came from Beer Lahai Roi, for he was living in the Negev.
24:63 He went out to relax in the field in the early evening. Then he looked up and saw that there were camels approaching.
24:64 Rebekah looked up and saw Isaac. She got down from her camel
24:65 and asked Abraham’s servant, “Who is that man walking in the field toward us?” “That is my master,” the servant replied. So she took her veil and covered herself.
24:66 The servant told Isaac everything that had happened.
24:67 Then Isaac brought Rebekah into his mother Sarah’s tent. He took her as his wife and loved her. So Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.
