Genesi 24:64 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 24:64

And Rebekah lifted up her eyes
And looked about: and when she saw Isaac;
whom she suspected him to be, and therefore inquired of the servant, who told her who he was: she lighted off the camel;
or "fell" F23 from it, not accidentally, or through surprise, but willingly, and in honour to Isaac, as was customary; for had she sat on her camel when she met him, it would not have seemed respectful enough to him; though Jarchi thinks she did not get off, but only bowed herself upon the camel, when she came near him.

Genesi 24:64 In-Context

62 Or Isacco era tornato dal pozzo di Lachai-Roi, ed abitava nel paese del mezzodì.
63 Isacco era uscito, sul far della sera, per meditare nella campagna; e, alzati gli occhi, guardò, ed ecco venir de’ cammelli.
64 E Rebecca, alzati anch’ella gli occhi, vide Isacco, saltò giù dal cammello, e disse al servo:
65 "Chi è quell’uomo che viene pel campo incontro a noi?" Il servo rispose: "E’ il mio signore". Ed ella, preso il suo velo, se ne coprì.
66 E il servo raccontò a Isacco tutto quello che avea fatto.
