Génesis 24:54 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 24:54

And they did eat and drink, he, and the men that [were] with
him
Every thing being settled with respect to the affair he came about, he then sat down at table, and ate of the provisions set before him; he and the men that came along with him; and refreshed themselves: and tarried all night;
lodged there all night; and they rose up in the morning;
the servant and his men: and he said, send me away to my master;
either to Abraham, who was waiting to hear what success his servant would have; or to Isaac, who also was solicitous about the matter: the sense is, that he desired leave to go away, and begged he might not be detained any longer, having now done the business he came about; still showing himself a diligent faithful servant, heartily and sincerely attached to his master's interest, and not consulting his own ease and pleasure, which might have been indulged by staying longer in a family, where he would have been entertained in a sumptuous manner.

Génesis 24:54 In-Context

52 Y fue, que cuando el siervo de Abraham oyó sus palabras, se inclinó a tierra al SEÑOR.

53 Y sacó el siervo vasos de plata y vasos de oro y vestidos, y dio a Rebeca; también dio cosas preciosas a su hermano y a su madre.

54 Y comieron y bebieron él y los varones que venían con él, y durmieron; y levantándose de mañana, dijo: Enviadme a mi señor.

55 Entonces respondió su hermano y su madre: Espere la doncella con nosotros a lo menos diez días, y después irá.

56 Y él les dijo: No me detengáis, pues que el SEÑOR ha prosperado mi camino; despachadme para que me vaya a mi señor.
