Genesis 24:27

25 Moreover she said to him, “We have both straw and feed enough, and room to lodge.”

26 Then the man ^abowed down his head and worshiped the Lord.

27 And he said, ^a“Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, who has not forsaken ^bHis mercy and His truth toward my master. As for me, being on the way, the Lord ^cled me to the house of my master’s brethren.”

28 So the young woman ran and told her mother’s household these things.

29 Now Rebekah had a brother whose name was ^aLaban, and Laban ran out to the man by the well.

John Wesley's Notes

<< Genesis 24:26

Genesis 24:28 >>

Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham - Observe here, He had prayed for good speed, and now he had sped well, he gives thanks. As yet, he was not certain what the issue might prove, yet he gives thanks. When God's favours are coming towards us; we must meet them with our praises. The Lord led me to the house of my master's brethren - Those of them that were come out of Ur of the Chaldees, though they were not come to Canaan, but staid in Haran. They were not idolaters, but worshippers of the true God, and inclinable to the religion of Abraham's family.
