In this week's episode we discuss the meet cute and marriage arrangement of Abraham's Son Isaac and Rebecca. We ended last time with Abraham’s reconciliation with God. Yahweh provided a lamb for sacrifice and established an atonement for the broken relationship. But today we pick up almost 15 years later. Isaac is a young man now, Sarah has died, and Abraham is well advanced in years. And Abraham is finding away for his son to get married.

As I share this story, we will talk about oaths, how much water Camels can really drink, and of course Ancient Near Eastern Marriage customs.
