Shelishi

  1. The journey of Eliezer and the meeting of Rivka by the well:
  • Eliezer took with him ten camels and all the possessions of his master, and he travelled to Aram Naharayim, the city of Nachor.
  • By the approach of evening, upon arrival to the outskirts of the city, Eliezer kneeled the camels onto the ground, near the well. This was at the time that the people came to the well to draw water.
  • The prayer of Eliezer: Eliezer prayed to Hashem, asking Him to assist him in his mission, and to arrange that the woman who would volunteer to give him and his camels to drink would be the one chosen to be the wife of Yitzchak.
  • Rivka: As he finished speaking, Rivkah, the daughter of Besuel, who was the nephew of Avraham, came out with a bucket of water. Rivka was very pretty, and was still a Besula, not having been with any man.
  • Rivka draws water: She proceeded to draw water from the well, and Eliezer ran towards her, asking her to give him some water to drink. Rivkah gave him to drink and then went ahead and gave his camels to drink until satiation. She went numerous times to the well to give all the camels water. Eliezer was astounded, waiting to see if his mission was accomplished or not.
  • The presents given to Rivka: When the camels finished drinking, he went ahead and gave Rivkah gold nose rings and two gold bracelets.
  • Asking to be hosted: He asked Rivkah who her family is and if they can host him. She replied that she is the daughter of Besuel, Son of Milcah and Nachor and that they have room to host him and his camels, and they have food for them all.
  • Eliezer bowed to Hashem.
