Douay-Rheims Bible: Genesis — Introduction, Chapter Summaries and Notes by Richard Challoner
Chapter 24
SummaryAbraham's servant, sent by him into Mesopotamia, bringeth from thence Rebecca, who is married to Isaac.
[24:7] He will send his angel before thee. . . This shows that the Hebrews believed that God gave them guardian angels for their protection.
[24:57] Let us call the maid, and ask her will. . .Not as to her marriage, as she had already consented, but of her quitting her parents and going to her husband.
