Genesis 24:29 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 24:29

And Rebekah had a brother, and his name [was] Laban
Perhaps he was her only brother, or however the elder brother, the principal in the family, her father Bethuel being old: and Laban ran out:
out of his house, and out of the city of Haran: unto the man unto the well;
this was after Rebekah had got home, and had related to the family whom she had met with at the well, and what had passed between them, as follows:

Genesis 24:29 In-Context

27 and said, "Blessed is the Lord, the God of my master Abraham. The Lord has been kind and truthful to him and has led me to my master's relatives."

28 Then Rebekah ran and told her mother's family about all these things.

29 She had a brother named Laban, who ran out to Abraham's servant, who was still at the spring.

30 Laban had heard what she had said and had seen the ring and the bracelets on his sister's arms. So he ran out to the well, and there was the man standing by the camels at the spring.

31 Laban said, "Sir, you are welcome to come in; you don't have to stand outside. I have prepared the house for you and also a place for your camels."
