The Story of Rebecca the Story of Rebecca a Wife for Isaac: Genesis 24 24:1 Abraham Was Old, Well Advanced in Years, and God Had Blessed Abraham with Everything
The Story of Rebecca The Story of Rebecca A Wife for Isaac: Genesis 24 24:1 Abraham was old, well advanced in years, and God had blessed Abraham with everything. 24:2 He said to the senior servant of his household, who was in charge of all that he owned, 'Place your hand under my thigh. 24:3 I will bind you by an oath to God, Lord of heaven and earth that you will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites among whom I live. 24:4 Instead, you must go to my native land, to my birthplace, and obtain a wife for my son Isaac.' 24:5 'But what if the girl does not want to come back with me to this land?' asked the servant. 'Shall I bring your son back to the land that you left?' 24:6 'Be most careful in this respect,' replied Abraham. 'Do not bring my son back there! 24:7 God, the Lord of heaven, took me away from my father's house and the land of my birth. He spoke to me and made an oath. 'To your offspring I will give this land.' He will send His angel before you, and you will indeed find a wife there for my son. 24:8 If the girl does not want to come back with you, then you shall be absolved of my oath. But [no matter what,] do not bring my son back there!' 24:9 The servant placed his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and he took an oath regarding this.

Parshat Chayei Sarah SUMMARY • Abraham Purchases the Cave Of
Parshat Chayei Sarah SUMMARY • Abraham purchases the cave of Machpelah in order to bury his wife Sarah. (23:1-20) • Abraham sends his servant to find a bride for Isaac. (24:1-9) • Rebekah shows her kindness by offering to draw water for the servant's camels at the well. (24:15-20) • The servant meets Rebekah's family and then takes Rebekah to Isaac, who marries her. (24:23-67) • Abraham takes another wife, named Keturah. At the age of one hundred and seventy-five years, Abraham dies, and Isaac and Ishmael bury him in the cave of Machpelah. (25:1- 11) 1 Gen 24:10-20 (10) Then the servant took ten of his master’s camels and set out, taking with him all the bounty of his master; and he made his way to Aram-naharaim, to the city of Nahor. (11) He made the camels kneel down by the well outside the city, at evening time, the time when women come out to draw water. (12) And he said, “O LORD, God of my master Abraham, grant me good fortune this day, and deal graciously with my master Abraham: (13) Here I stand by the spring as the daughters of the townsmen come out to draw water; (14) let the maiden to whom I say, ‘Please, lower your jar that I may drink,’ and who replies, ‘Drink, and I will also water your camels’—let her be the one whom You have decreed for Your servant Isaac. Thereby shall I know that You have dealt graciously with my master.” (15) He had scarcely finished speaking, when Rebekah, who was born to Bethuel, the son of Milcah the wife of Abraham’s brother Nahor, came out with her jar on her shoulder.

Family of Abraham
Family of Abraham Terah ? Haran Nahor Sarai - - - - - ABRAM - - - - - Hagar Lot Milcah Bethuel Ishmael (1) ISAAC (2) Daughter 1 Daughter 2 Ishmaelites (12 tribes / Arabs) Laban Rebekah Moabites Ammonites JACOB (2) Esau (1) Leah Rachel Edomites (+Zilpah) (+Bilhah) ISRAELITES Key: blue = men; red = women; (12 tribes / Jews) dashes = spouses; arrows = children Terah: from Ur of the Chaldeans; has 3 sons; wife not named (Gen 11:26-32; cf. Luke 3:34). Haran: dies in Ur before his father dies; wife not named; son Lot, daughters Milcah & Iscah (11:27-28). Nahor: marries Milcah, daughter of his brother Haran (11:29); have 8 sons, incl. Bethuel (22:20-24). Abram: main character of Gen 12–25; recipient of God’s promises; name changed to ABRAHAM (17:5); sons Ishmael (by Hagar) and Isaac (by Sarah); after Sarah’s death, takes another wife, Keturah, who has 6 sons (25:1-4), including Midian, ancestor of the Midianites (37:28-36). Lot: son of Haran, thus nephew of Abram, who takes care of him (11:27–14:16; 18:17–19:29); wife and two daughters never named; widowed daughters sleep with their father and bear sons, who become ancestors of the Moabites and Ammonites (19:30-38). Sarai: Abram’s wife, thus Terah’s daughter-in-law (11:29-31); Abram also calls her his “sister,” which seems deceptive in one story (12:10-20); but in another story Abram insists she really is his half- sister (his father’s daughter by another wife; 20:1-18); originally childless, but in old age has a son, Isaac (16:1–21:7); name changed to SARAH (17:15); dies and is buried in Hebron (23:1-20).

Women of the Bible Lesson Three: Rebekah hen Abraham left Haran to go to the land of Canaan, his Wbrother Nahor remained in Mesopotamia. Nahor’s wife, Milcah bore eight children unto him, one of whom was named Bethuel – the father of Rebekah. Introduction. When Isaac was grown, and Abraham was old, he made his oldest servant swear to him that he would not take a wife for Isaac from among the Canaanite women. Instead he sent him to Mesopotamia, to his brother Nahor’s people, assuring him that the Lord would provide a wife for Isaac there (Genesis 24:2-9). This wife would be Rebekah. I. Rebekah’s willingness to follow where the Lord led her. A. Upon the arrival of Abrham’s servant in Mesopotamia, he prays that God would reveal to him the woman who should be Isaac’s wife (Genesis 24:10-14) . 1. Before he finished praying, Rebekah came to him and does just as he had prayed that she would do (Genesis 24:15-21). 2. When Rebekah revealed her family to him, the servant knew that God had answered his prayer (Genesis 24:22-28). B. When Abraham’s servant came into Rebekah’s house he told her family his pur- pose (Genesis 24:32-41). 1. He also tells them how God had brought Rebekah to him (Genesis 24:42-49). 2. Bethuel and Laban (Rebekah’s father and brother), recognizing God’s hand in this matter, agree to let Rebekah go to Isaac (Genesis 24:50-56). C. Rebekah is asked whether she will go immediately with Abraham’s servant and become Isaac’s wife, or not.
