Genesis 24:5 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 24:5

3 and I will make you ^aswear by the Lord, the God of heaven and the God of the earth, that ^byou will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell;

4 ^abut you shall go ^bto my country and to my family, and take a wife for my son Isaac.”

5 And the servant said to him, “Perhaps the woman will not be willing to follow me to this land. Must I take your son back to the land from which you came?”

6 But Abraham said to him, “Beware that you do not take my son back there.

7 The Lord God of heaven, who ^atook me from my father’s house and from the land of my family, and who spoke to me and swore to me, saying, ^b‘To your descendants I give this land,’ ^cHe will send His angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there.
