Genesis 24:67
And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he loved her: and Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death. And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he loved her: and Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.
After the servant reported how his journey had succeeded, Isaac brought Rebekah into his mother Sarah's tent. He took Rebekah as his wife, loved her, and was comforted after his mother's death, a tender picture of domestic happiness. The marriage belongs to the plan for Rebekah to be chosen from Abraham's kindred in Mesopotamia so she could join Isaac in maintaining the worship of the living God, while Isaac remained in Canaan with confidence that God would send an angel to guide the mission.
Isaac was forty years old when he accepted his father's judgment to have a trusted, God-fearing servant choose his wife. He submitted to his father's wisdom and judgment, entrusting the choice to his father's servant and trusting God to direct the choice. In contrast with hasty choices made without parental counsel, his obedient marriage brought domestic happiness.
The account illustrates the value of parental guidance and parents' responsibility to guide their children's affections toward suitable companions. That responsibility includes teaching children respect for parental authority and guiding their affections toward companions judged suitable, and leaving young people's affections wholly unguided is rebuked. The verse holds up Isaac's example for children who fear God, that they should not treat choosing a spouse as solely their own decision but should seek parental guidance, act in the fear of God, and make marriage a matter of prayer.
