Genesis 24:62 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 24:62

And Isaac came from the way of the well Lahairoi
The well at which the angel met with Hagar, when she fled from her mistress, ( Genesis 16:7 Genesis 16:14 ) . The Targums of Jonathan and Jerusalem say, that Isaac came from the school of Shem the great: for he dwelt in the south country:
at Beersheba, to which Abraham, it seems, was returned again; for that they dwelt together as yet, is clear from his mother Sarah's tent, into which he introduced Rebekah, ( Genesis 24:67 ) ; see ( Genesis 22:19 ) .

Genesis 24:62 In-Context

60 inprecantes prospera sorori suae atque dicentes soror nostra es crescas in mille milia et possideat semen tuum portas inimicorum suorum
61 igitur Rebecca et puellae illius ascensis camelis secutae sunt virum qui festinus revertebatur ad dominum suum
62 eo tempore Isaac deambulabat per viam quae ducit ad puteum cuius nomen est Viventis et videntis habitabat enim in terra australi
63 et egressus fuerat ad meditandum in agro inclinata iam die cumque levasset oculos vidit camelos venientes procul
64 Rebecca quoque conspecto Isaac descendit de camelo
