Genesis 24:67

Context
24:67 Then Isaac brought Rebekah 1  into his mother Sarah’s tent. He took her 2  as his wife and loved her. 3  So Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death. 4 

Genesis 28:2

Context
28:2 Leave immediately 5  for Paddan Aram! Go to the house of Bethuel, your mother’s father, and find yourself a wife there, among the daughters of Laban, your mother’s brother.

1 tn Heb “her”; the referent has been specified here in the translation for clarity.

2 tn Heb “Rebekah”; here the proper name was replaced by the pronoun (“her”) in the translation for stylistic reasons.

3 tn Heb “and he took Rebekah and she became his wife and he loved her.”

4 tn Heb “after his mother.” This must refer to Sarah’s death.

5 tn Heb “Arise! Go!” The first of the two imperatives is adverbial and stresses the immediacy of the departure.
