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 They blessed Rivkah with these words: "Our sister, may you be the mother of millions, and may your descendants possess the cities of those who hate them."

61 Then Rivkah and her maids mounted the camels and followed the man. So the servant took Rivkah and went on his way.

62 Meanwhile, Yitz'chak, one evening after coming along the road from Be'er-Lachai-Ro'i - he was living in the Negev -

63 went out walking in the field; and as he looked up, he saw camels approaching.

64 Rivkah too looked up; and when she saw Yitz'chak, she quickly dismounted the camel.
