Rebekah
Rebekah was the wife of Isaac and mother of the twins Jacob and Esau, chosen at a well far from Canaan.
Abraham’s servant, praying for a sign, met Rebekah at a well; she watered his camels and proved to be the answer to his prayer. She agreed to leave her family and travel to a land she had never seen to marry Isaac.
Pregnant with struggling twins, she was told the older would serve the younger. She favored Jacob, and helped him obtain the blessing Isaac intended for Esau — a decision that secured the promise but fractured her family.
Rebekah’s story shows both bold faith and complicated choices in the unfolding of God’s plan.
