A Wife for Isaac Genesis 24:1-14

Many years later, Isaac was all grown
up. Abraham said to his servant,
"Go back to the land I came
from and find a wife for my son."
·
The servant loaded up camels with all
kinds of wonderful presents. After he got to the land far away, he wasn't sure
how to find a wife for Isaac .

At a place where girls came to get water
he prayed, "Let the right girl give me water."

Before the servant had finished praying
a beautiful young woman came to get water. The servant asked her, "Will you
give me some water please?" "Yes she said, "I'll get water for
your camels too" It was big job.

Thirsty camels can drink a lot of water. Back and forth she went
pouring water for them all.
Rebekah Genesis 24:21-61

to be Isaac's wife. Her name was Rebekah.

if Rebekah could marry Isaac.

to get married too. So she went home with the servant to meet Isaac.

the right girl.

road all the way to Canaan where Isaac lived. One evening just before the sun
went down the camels stopped.

A young man was walking in the field.
His bride had come. Isaac loved Rebekah. He married her.
