Genesis 24:24 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 24:24

And she said unto him, I [am] the daughter of Bethuel the son
of Milcah
Which Milcah was the daughter of Haran, Abraham's elder brother, and, as thought by many, sister to Sarah, Abraham's wife, see ( Genesis 11:29 ) : which she bare unto Nahor;
Abraham's brother; so that her father was Nahor's son, not by his concubine Reumah, but by his lawful wife Milcah, which sets Rebekah's descent in a true light, see ( Genesis 22:20-24 ) ; whether she told her own name is not certain, it may be, since the servant bade it, ( Genesis 24:45 ) .

23 He asked, "Whose daughter are you? Please tell me whether there is room in your father's house for us to spend the night."

24 She answered him, "I'm the daughter of Bethuel, son of Milcah and Nahor.

25 We have plenty of straw and feed [for your camels] and room for you to spend the night."

26 The man knelt, bowing to the LORD with his face touching the ground.
