Commentary

Behold, Rebekah is before thee,.... Not only was present, but she was delivered to him, or his request was granted: take her, and go, and let her be thy master's son's wife; not that they meant he should go away directly with her; for they afterwards solicit her stay with them some time; but they agreed that he should bare her and conduct her to Isaac, to be taken by him for his wife: as the Lord hath spoken; for so they understood the token given to the servant to know her by, as the determination of God.
