This reflects the cultural practice of arranged marriages and the importance of family lineage. The servant's role is significant as he acts as a mediator, similar to the Holy Spirit's role in guiding believers. Isaac, the son of promise, is a type of Christ, and the servant's mission parallels the work of the Spirit in preparing the bride (the Church) for Christ.<p><b>all that he had done.</b><br>The servant recounts his journey, highlighting God's providence and faithfulness in leading him to Rebekah. This emphasizes the theme of divine guidance and the fulfillment of God's promises. The detailed account underscores the importance of testimony and witness in the faith journey.
