Génesis 24:15 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 24:15

And it came to pass, before he had done speaking
In his heart, ( Genesis 24:45 ) ; for his prayer was mental; while the last words were dropping from him, that very moment, as the Targum of Jonathan; so soon were his prayers heard and answered, ( Isaiah 65:24 ) ; that behold Rebekah came out;
out of Haran, the city of Nahor: who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's
brother;
a daughter of Bethuel, which Bethuel was the eighth and last son of Milcah, and who was the daughter of Haran and the wife of Nahor, both brothers to Abraham: this is the genealogy of Rebekah, and for the sake of her is the account of Nahor's family given, ( Genesis 22:20-24 ) : with her pitcher upon her shoulder;
to fetch water from the well for the use of the family; which, though the daughter of a wealthy person, she did not disdain to do; an instance of diligence and humility this.

Génesis 24:15 In-Context

13 AquĂ­ me tienes, a la espera junto a la fuente, mientras las jĂłvenes de esta ciudad vienen a sacar agua.
14 Permite que la joven a quien le diga: “Por favor, baje usted su cĂĄntaro para que tome yo un poco de agua”, y que me conteste: “Tome usted, y ademĂĄs les darĂ© agua a sus camellos”, sea la que tĂș has elegido para tu siervo Isaac. AsĂ­ estarĂ© seguro de que tĂș has demostrado el amor que le tienes a mi amo».
15 AĂșn no habĂ­a terminado de orar cuando vio que se acercaba Rebeca, con su cĂĄntaro al hombro. Rebeca era hija de Betuel, que a su vez era hijo de Milca y Najor, el hermano de Abraham.
16 La joven era muy hermosa, y ademĂĄs virgen, pues no habĂ­a tenido relaciones sexuales con ningĂșn hombre. BajĂł hacia la fuente y llenĂł su cĂĄntaro. Ya se preparaba para subir
17 cuando el criado corrió a su encuentro y le dijo:—¿Podría usted darme un poco de agua de su cántaro?
