Genesis 22:23 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 22:23

And Bethuel begat Rebekah
Who was to be and was the wife of Isaac; and, for the sake of her genealogy, the above account is given, as Aben Ezra observes, and so Jarchi; and this is observed to pave the way for the history of the chapter; for no notice is taken of any other of Bethuel's children but her, not even of Laban her brother: these eight Milcah did bear, to Nahor, Abraham's brother;
this is observed, and the exact number given, as well as their names, to distinguish them from other children of Nahor he had by another woman, as follows:

Genesis 22:23 In-Context

21 Uz, seinen Erstgeborenen, und Bus, seinen Bruder, und Kemuel, den Vater Arams,

22 und Kesed und Haso und Pildasch und Jidlaph und Bethuel.

23 (Und Bethuel zeugte Rebekka.) Diese acht gebar Milka dem Nahor, dem Bruder Abrahams.

24 Und sein Kebsweib, namens Reuma, auch sie gebar Tebach und Gacham und Tachasch und Maaka.
