Genesis 24:24 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 24:24

And she said unto him, I [am] the daughter of Bethuel the son
of Milcah
Which Milcah was the daughter of Haran, Abraham's elder brother, and, as thought by many, sister to Sarah, Abraham's wife, see ( Genesis 11:29 ) : which she bare unto Nahor;
Abraham's brother; so that her father was Nahor's son, not by his concubine Reumah, but by his lawful wife Milcah, which sets Rebekah's descent in a true light, see ( Genesis 22:20-24 ) ; whether she told her own name is not certain, it may be, since the servant bade it, ( Genesis 24:45 ) .

Genesis 24:24 In-Context

22 So it was, when the camels had finished drinking, that the man took a golden nose ring weighing half a shekel, and two bracelets for her wrists weighing ten shekels of gold,

23 and said, "Whose daughter are you? Tell me, please, is there room in your father's house for us to lodge?"

24 So she said to him, "I am the daughter of Bethuel, Milcah's son, whom she bore to Nahor."

25 Moreover she said to him, "We have both straw and feed enough, and room to lodge."

26 Then the man bowed down his head and worshiped the Lord.
