The Hebrew word for "blessed" is "barak," which means to kneel or to bless. This expression of worship acknowledges the LORD's sovereignty and goodness. In the context of the ancient Near East, blessing the LORD was a way to recognize His active role in the affairs of humanity, particularly in fulfilling His promises.the God of my master Abraham This phrase identifies the LORD as the specific deity worshiped by Abraham, distinguishing Him from the many gods of surrounding cultures. The Hebrew word for "God" here is "Elohim," a plural form that denotes majesty and power. By invoking the God of Abraham, the speaker aligns himself with the covenantal promises given to Abraham, emphasizing the continuity of God's faithfulness across generations.who has not withheld His kindness and faithfulness The terms "kindness" and "faithfulness" are translated from the Hebrew words "chesed" and "emet," respectively. "Chesed" refers to steadfast love or covenantal loyalty, while "emet" denotes truth or reliability. Together, they encapsulate the character of God as one who is unwaveringly loyal and true to His promises. This acknowledgment serves as a testament to God's unchanging nature and His commitment to His covenant with Abraham.from my master The term "master" refers to Abraham, highlighting the servant's role and his respect for Abraham's authority. In the cultural context of the time, a servant's loyalty and success were often seen as a reflection of the master's standing and relationship with God. This phrase underscores the servant's recognition of God's favor upon Abraham.As for me, the LORD has led me Here, the servant personalizes the experience, acknowledging divine guidance in his own journey. The Hebrew word for "led" is "nachah," which implies guidance with care and purpose. This reflects the belief that God is actively involved in the lives of His people, directing their paths according to His will.on the journey The word "journey" signifies more than just physical travel; it represents a divinely orchestrated mission. In the biblical narrative, journeys often symbolize spiritual growth and the unfolding of God's plan. This journey, in particular, is part of the larger narrative of God's promise to Abraham to make him a great nation.to the house of my master’s relatives This phrase indicates the successful completion of the servant's mission to find a wife for Isaac from among Abraham's kin. The reference to "relatives" ties back to God's promise to Abraham to bless his family line. It also highlights the importance of familial connections and the continuation of God's covenant through Abraham's descendants. <a href="/commentaries/genesis/24-27.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>saying, וַיֹּ֗אמֶר (way·yō·mer) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_559.htm">Strong's 559: </a> To utter, say “Blessed בָּר֤וּךְ (bā·rūḵ) Verb - Qal - QalPassParticiple - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1288.htm">Strong's 1288: </a> To kneel, to bless God, man, to curse [be] the LORD, יְהוָה֙ (Yah·weh) Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3068.htm">Strong's 3068: </a> LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israel the God אֱלֹהֵי֙ (’ĕ·lō·hê) Noun - masculine plural construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_430.htm">Strong's 430: </a> gods -- the supreme God, magistrates, a superlative of my master אֲדֹנִ֣י (’ă·ḏō·nî) Noun - masculine singular construct | first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_113.htm">Strong's 113: </a> Sovereign, controller Abraham, אַבְרָהָ֔ם (’aḇ·rā·hām) Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_85.htm">Strong's 85: </a> Abraham -- 'exalted father', the father of the Jewish nation who אֲ֠שֶׁר (’ă·šer) Pronoun - relative <a href="/hebrew/strongs_834.htm">Strong's 834: </a> Who, which, what, that, when, where, how, because, in order that has not לֹֽא־ (lō-) Adverb - Negative particle <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3808.htm">Strong's 3808: </a> Not, no withheld עָזַ֥ב (‘ā·zaḇ) Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5800.htm">Strong's 5800: </a> To loosen, relinquish, permit His kindness חַסְדּ֛וֹ (ḥas·dōw) Noun - masculine singular construct | third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2617.htm">Strong's 2617: </a> Kindness, piety, reproof, beauty and faithfulness וַאֲמִתּ֖וֹ (wa·’ă·mit·tōw) Conjunctive waw | Noun - feminine singular construct | third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_571.htm">Strong's 571: </a> Stability, certainty, truth, trustworthiness from מֵעִ֣ם (mê·‘im) Preposition-m <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5973.htm">Strong's 5973: </a> With, equally with my master. אֲדֹנִ֑י (’ă·ḏō·nî) Noun - masculine singular construct | first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_113.htm">Strong's 113: </a> Sovereign, controller As for me, אָנֹכִ֗י (’ā·nō·ḵî) Pronoun - first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_595.htm">Strong's 595: </a> I the LORD יְהוָ֔ה (Yah·weh) Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3068.htm">Strong's 3068: </a> LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israel has led נָחַ֣נִי (nā·ḥa·nî) Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person masculine singular | first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5148.htm">Strong's 5148: </a> To guide, to transport me on the journey בַּדֶּ֙רֶךְ֙ (bad·de·reḵ) Preposition-b, Article | Noun - common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1870.htm">Strong's 1870: </a> A road, a course of life, mode of action to the house בֵּ֖ית (bêṯ) Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1004.htm">Strong's 1004: </a> A house of my master’s אֲדֹנִֽי׃ (’ă·ḏō·nî) Noun - masculine singular construct | first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_113.htm">Strong's 113: </a> Sovereign, controller kinsmen.” אֲחֵ֥י (’ă·ḥê) Noun - masculine plural construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_251.htm">Strong's 251: </a> A brother, ) <div class="vheading">Links</div><a href="/niv/genesis/24-27.htm">Genesis 24:27 NIV</a> <a href="/nlt/genesis/24-27.htm">Genesis 24:27 NLT</a> <a href="/esv/genesis/24-27.htm">Genesis 24:27 ESV</a> <a href="/nasb/genesis/24-27.htm">Genesis 24:27 NASB</a> <a href="/kjv/genesis/24-27.htm">Genesis 24:27 KJV</a> <a href="//bibleapps.com/genesis/24-27.htm">Genesis 24:27 BibleApps.com</a> <a href="//bibliaparalela.com/genesis/24-27.htm">Genesis 24:27 Biblia Paralela</a> <a href="//holybible.com.cn/genesis/24-27.htm">Genesis 24:27 Chinese Bible</a> <a href="//saintebible.com/genesis/24-27.htm">Genesis 24:27 French Bible</a> <a href="/catholic/genesis/24-27.htm">Genesis 24:27 Catholic Bible</a> <a href="/genesis/24-27.htm">OT Law: Genesis 24:27 He said Blessed be Yahweh the God (Gen.
