‘And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master and departed, having all the goodly things of his master in his hand, and he arose and went to Aram Naharaim (‘Aram of the two rivers' - Mesopotamia), to the city of Nahor.'
Camels were known in the area around this time but were the possessions of the very wealthy. This was therefore a deliberate attempt to impress those to whom he is going. It would be a rich caravan that went forth, loaded with valuables and well protected by armed guards.
“Ten camels.” This may be a round number to indicate a small group, but more than two or three.
“All the goodly things.” This may mean as many as he chose to take, or signify that he was steward over all having control over all and that he could take what he liked.
“The city of Nahor.” Probably not the name of the city which was probably Haran (Genesis 11:31; Genesis 27:43). The point is that the steward went to the city where Nahor dwelt. Haran was situated on the river Balikh, a tributary of the Upper Euphrates and was a centre of moon worship.
