Description

Abraham, aged and solemn, sits within the folds of his tent and raises his hand as he commissions a trusted servant for a sacred journey. The servant stands before him with a travel staff and pouch, prepared to leave the household on Abraham’s command. A vessel rests nearby, quietly pointing toward the well where the servant’s mission will unfold and where Rebekah will be recognized as the appointed bride for Isaac.

The scene draws from Genesis 24, where Abraham seeks a wife for his son from among his own people rather than from the surrounding Canaanites. The moment emphasizes covenant faithfulness, household obedience, and divine guidance in family lineage. Abraham’s servant does not act from ambition but under oath, prayer, and trust that the Lord will lead the way. This artwork serves well for teaching on providence, biblical marriage, patriarchal history, and God’s faithful preservation of His promise.

Scriptures	Genesis 24:1-9 Genesis 24:10-14 Genesis 24 1 Now Abraham was old, well advanced in years. And the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things. 2 And Abraham said to his servant, the oldest of his household, who had charge of all that he had, “Put your hand under my thigh, 3 that I may make you swear by the LORD, the God of heaven and God of the earth, that you will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell, 4 but will go to my country and to my kindred, and take a wife for my son Isaac.” 5 The servant said to him, “Perhaps the woman may not be willing to follow me to this land. Must I then take your son back to the land from which you came?” 6 Abraham said to him, “See to it that you do not take my son back there. 7 The LORD, the God of heaven, who took me from my father's house and from the land of my kindred, and who spoke to me and swore to me, ‘To your offspring I will give this land,’ he will send his angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there. 8 But if the woman is not willing to follow you, then you will be free from this oath of mine; only you must not take my son back there.” 9 So the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master and swore to him concerning this matter. Genesis 24 10 Then the servant took ten of his master's camels and departed, taking all sorts of choice gifts from his master; and he arose and went to Mesopotamia to the city of Nahor. 11 And he made the camels kneel down outside the city by the well of water at the time of evening, the time when women go out to draw water. 12 And he said, “O LORD, God of my master Abraham, please grant me success today and show steadfast love to my master Abraham. 13 Behold, I am standing by the spring of water, and the daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water. 14 Let the young woman to whom I shall say, ‘Please let down your jar that I may drink,’ and who shall say, ‘Drink, and I will water your camels’—let her be the one whom you have appointed for your servant Isaac. By this I shall know that you have shown steadfast love to my master.”
