Génesis 24:6 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 24:6

And Abraham said unto him
Not blaming him for putting such a question, nor charging him with impertinence, but plainly seeing the propriety of it: and in order to clear up this matter to him, gives the following instructions, beware thou, that thou bring not my son thither again;
for the command to come out of the land of Chaldea, never to return more, and to come into the land of Canaan, and there abide, respected both Abraham and his posterity; and besides, it was dangerous for Isaac to go into a family, where, though there was some knowledge of the true God, yet there was much superstition and idolatry in it, as appears by various hints in the sequel of this history, lest he should be corrupted, and degenerate from the true religion.

4 Isaac, sino que irás a mi tierra, donde vive mi familia, y de allí le escogerás una esposa.
5 —¿Qué pasa si la mujer no está dispuesta a venir conmigo a esta tierra? —respondió el criado—. ¿Debo entonces llevar a su hijo hasta la tierra de donde usted vino?
6 —¡De ninguna manera debes llevar a mi hijo hasta allá! —le replicó Abraham—.
7 El SEÑOR, el Dios del cielo, que me sacó de la casa de mi padre y de la tierra de mis familiares, y que bajo juramento me prometió dar esta tierra a mis descendientes, enviará su ángel delante de ti para que puedas traer de allá una mujer para mi hijo.
8 Si la mujer no está dispuesta a venir contigo, quedarás libre de este juramento; pero ¡en ningún caso llevarás a mi hijo hasta allá!
