Génesis 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.

Génesis 24:64 In-Context

62 Y venía Isaac del pozo del Viviente que me ve; porque él habitaba en la tierra del Mediodía;
63 Y había salido Isaac á orar al campo, á la hora de la tarde; y alzando sus ojos miró, y he aquí los camellos que venían.
64 Rebeca también alzó sus ojos, y vió á Isaac, y descendió del camello;
65 Porque había preguntado al criado: ¿Quién es este varón que viene por el campo hacia nosotros? Y el siervo había respondido: Este es mi señor. Ella entonces tomó el velo, y cubrióse.
66 Entonces el criado contó á Isaac todo lo que había hecho.
