kjv@Genesis:24:5@ And the [SERVANT] said unto him, Peradventure the woman [WILL] not be willing to follow me unto this [LAND]: must I needs bring thy [SON] again unto the [LAND] from whence thou camest?
kjv@Genesis:24:8@ And if the woman [WILL] not be willing to follow thee, then thou shalt be clear from this my [OATH]: only bring not my [SON] thither again.
kjv@Genesis:24:13@ Behold, I stand here by the well of [WATER]; and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw [WATER]:
kjv@Genesis:24:14@ And let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say, Let down thy [PITCHER], I pray thee, that I may [DRINK]; and she shall say, [DRINK], and I [WILL] give thy camels [DRINK] also: let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy [SERVANT][ISAAC]; and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed [KINDNESS] unto my [MASTER].
kjv@Genesis:24:20@ And she hasted, and emptied her [PITCHER] into the trough, and ran again unto the well to draw [WATER], and drew for all his camels.
kjv@Genesis:24:22@ And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking, that the [MAN] took a [GOLDEN] [EAR-RING] of half a [SHEKEL] weight, and two bracelets for her hands of [TEN] shekels weight of [GOLD];
kjv@Genesis:24:30@ And it came to pass, when he [SAW] the [EAR-RING] 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.
kjv@Genesis:24:31@ 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.
kjv@Genesis:24:35@ And the [LORD] hath blessed my [MASTER] greatly; and he is become [GREAT]: and he hath given him flocks, and herds, and [SILVER], and [GOLD], and menservants, and maidservants, and camels, and asses.
kjv@Genesis:24:41@ Then shalt thou be clear from this my [OATH], when thou comest to my kindred; and if they give not thee one, thou shalt be clear from my [OATH].
kjv@Genesis:24:44@ And she say to me, Both [DRINK] thou, and I [WILL] also draw for thy camels: let the same be the woman whom the [LORD] hath appointed out for my master's [SON].
kjv@Genesis:24:49@ And now if ye [WILL] deal kindly and truly with my [MASTER], tell me: and if not, tell me; that I may turn to the right [HAND], or to the left.
kjv@Genesis:24:54@ And they did eat and [DRINK], he and the men that were with him, and tarried all [NIGHT]; and they [ROSE] up in the morning, and he said, Send me away unto my [MASTER].
kjv@Genesis:24:60@ And they blessed [REBEKAH], and said unto her, Thou [ART] our sister, be thou the [MOTHER] of thousands of millions, and let thy [SEED] possess the gate of those which hate them.
kjv@Genesis:24:63@ And [ISAAC] went out to meditate in the field at the eventide: and he lifted up his eyes, and [SAW], and, behold, the camels were coming.
The angel had prepared the servants way to prosper at this task. The blood line was to remain pure. I take it (way) to mean that he prepared Rebekah and her family's heart. The servant put a test before the angel so that he would know when he found the right woman. I have known people to put other tests out in their own prayers and dealings; I think that we need to be careful. Remember that Isaac was to become the continuation of the covenant with Abraham, this wife was to birth a great many seeds of the covenant. There is a righteousness there that may not be there if we place a similar test on which job shall we take or what city. Often our tests favor preconceived notions of what we would most like the answer to be and the situations leading to them born out of our dissatisfaction or restlessness. I am not saying that tests such as these are not good in certain cases, I am saying one must truly search out their intentions and honesty before making demands upon the righteous will of God.
