Chuàngshìjì 24:9 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 24:9

And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his
master
Or "then" or "therefore the servant", &c. ^F14 being satisfied of the nature and extent of his oath, and thoroughly understanding how he was to act upon it, readily took it by using this rite, (See Gill on Genesis 24:2); and sware to him concerning that matter;
of taking a wife to his son, engaging to do everything he had directed and enjoined him relative to it.
