| 22 And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking, that the man took a golden earring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold;
23 And said, Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray thee: is there room in thy father's house for us to lodge in?
24 And she said unto him, I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, which she bare unto Nahor.
25 She said moreover unto him, We have both straw and provender enough, and room to lodge in.
26 And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped the LORD.
27 And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of my master Abraham, who hath not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way, the LORD led me to the house of my master's brethren.
28 And the damsel ran, and told them of her mother's house these things.
29 And Rebekah had a brother, and his name was Laban: and Laban ran out unto the man, unto the well.
30 And it came to pass, when he saw the earring and bracelets upon his sister's hands, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, Thus spake the man unto me; that he came unto the man; and, behold, he stood by the camels at the well.
31 And he said, Come in, thou blessed of the LORD; wherefore standest thou without? for I have prepared the house, and room for the camels.
32 And the man came into the house: and he ungirded his camels, and gave straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet, and the men's feet that were with him.

| And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped the LORD.
A. P. Lopuchin comments the extract and writes that having received this last testimony. Eliezer was convinced that his mission was over and, in a fit of fervent gratitude, he prayerfully bowed before the almighty
Providence.

| These lines remind us to give thanks to God. God has not left master of His mercy and His truth. We must not forget that God loves us all and does not leave us without His love, even when we turn away from Him, He is waiting for us because He is love.

| Here the house of Rebekah's mother, not her father is mentioned as he had already died. That's why the role of Laban is leading in the story. Although Laban was an idolater (Gen 31:30) as Lopuhin writes, however, being in a kinship with the house of Abraham, he had not yet managed to lose some traces of true knowledge of God.

| Reading different passages from the Bible, I always note for myself that this atmosphere of hospitality, reverence and respect is very close and understandable to me. After all, people do not make efforts on themselves to be courteous and polite, they are happy and sincerely demonstrate their good attitude towards each other.

| When reading this episode I admire the reverence, modesty and devotion of this servant to his master. After completing the master's errand, the servant thanks God for His mercy to his master. Not even to him, the servant, that he was able to carry out the master's errand. But to God that He arranged everything so that his master's will was fulfilled.
St. Filaret (Drozdov) writes on it: The servant of Abraham thanks God for such a work, which has not yet been brought to an end. But he sees in it the finger of God and therefore does not doubt the successful completion of it.

| I believe the actions of the characters in this passage are a perfect example of generosity. If everyone acted this way at least with their loved ones, the world would certainly be a better place. My mother has always believed in helping others who are in need, and every time I read this story, I think of her and her words of wisdom.

| I like this episode for its kindness. The Old Testament consists of many cruel episodes, but this one is quite warm indeed, it is one of my favourites. Rebekah and her brother Laban are really kind, reverent and courteous. So we can say that their parents are good people who managed to nurture their kids in such a wonderful way.
This passage reminds me of good people whom I helped and who helped me when I needed it.

| When Eliezer received the last evidence about Rebekah's father, he was convinced that his mission was over, and in a burst of fervent gratitude, he bowed down in prayer before the almighty Provider. Most likely, Rebekah's father, Bethuel, had already died, so it is not her father's house that is mentioned here, but her mother's.
Though Laban, Rebekah's brother, was an idolater (Gen. 31:30), yet, being related to the house from which Abraham had once come, he had not yet lost some traces of true God-knowledge. It is also possible that Laban calls his guest thus («blessed of the LORD») from the words of his sister Rebekah, who had heard the name of the Lord from the lips of Eliezer himself (Gen. 24: 27).

| There is a lot to attract attention in this passage. How concentrated are all the virtues in these lines that are found in man. Firstly, how sincerely and immediately the slave thanks God for fulfilling his request.
Secondly, the servant gave expensive gifts to Rebecca on behalf of his master, which spoke of his honesty, righteousness, and respect for women. Thirdly, Laban is a responsible brother, who is obviously replacing Rebecca's father and, besides that, how polite and kind he is. He does not drive the stranger away, does not ask questions about him or his sister, but immediately takes care of the servant.
