Isaac, a man about 40, was still grieving the loss of his mother, Sarah, who had died about three years earlier. We may infer, then, that Isaac was man of warm and tender feelings. What a blessing for such a man to be given a wife who was so industrious, hospitable, and humble! How did the two get along? The Bible says simply: "He fell in love with her." - GENESIS 24:67; 26:8.
Even for us, some 39 centuries later, it is easy to love Rebekah. How can be help but admire her courage, her industriousness, her hospitality, and her humility? All of us-young and old, men and women, married and single-do well to imitate her faith!
