Genesis 24:16-19 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

And the damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man known her: and she went down to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came up. And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me, I pray thee, drink a little water of thy pitcher. And she said, Drink, my lord: and she hasted, and let down her pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink. And when she had done giving him drink, she said, I will draw water for thy camels also, until they have done drinking.

Was not that sweet promise of the gospel fulfilled to Rebekah, in the after stages of her life? Matthew 10:42.
