Gênesis 24:59 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 24:59

And they sent away Rebekah their sister
Not in a pet or angry humour, but with good will; they agreed she should go, and took their leave in a very honourable and affectionate manner. This is to be understood of her brother Laban, and of other brethren and sisters she might have; though by the connection of the words with the preceding, they seem to design her brother and mother, who spoke last; and probably all her relations are meant, who call her their sister, because so nearly related to them: and her nurse:
who had been her nurse in former times, as Aben Ezra observes, in her infancy, for whom she had a particular affection, as is often the case; her name was Deborah, as appears from ( Genesis 35:8 ) : and Abraham's servant, and his men;
who were dismissed in an handsome manner by the family.

Gênesis 24:59 In-Context

57 Então lhe disseram: “Vamos chamar a jovem e ver o que ela diz”.
58 Chamaram Rebeca e lhe perguntaram: “Você quer ir com este homem?”“Sim, quero”, respondeu ela.
59 Despediram-se, pois, de sua irmã Rebeca, de sua ama, do servo de Abraão e dos que o acompanhavam.
60 E abençoaram Rebeca, dizendo-lhe:“Que você cresça, nossa irmã,até ser milhares de milhares;e que a sua descendência conquisteas cidades dos seus inimigos”.
61 Então Rebeca e suas servas se aprontaram, montaram seus camelos e partiram com o homem. E assim o servo partiu levando Rebeca.
