Genesis 24:64-67

Context
24:64 Rebekah looked up 1  and saw Isaac. She got down from her camel 24:65 and asked 2  Abraham’s servant, 3  “Who is that man walking in the field toward us?” “That is my master,” the servant replied. 4  So she took her veil and covered herself.

24:66 The servant told Isaac everything that had happened. 24:67 Then Isaac brought Rebekah 5  into his mother Sarah’s tent. He took her 6  as his wife and loved her. 7  So Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death. 8
