..."And the servant ran towards her" (Genesis 24:17) - towards her good deeds. "And he said 'Please, let me sip a little water from your jar.'” - just one sip. "And the man stood gazing at her"(Genesis 24:21) - Rabbi Yochanan from Tzipporin said: blinking and looking at her. "He took" - Rav Huna in the name of Rabbi Yosef said: he had a precious stone with him, and it weighted a beka [beka = half a shekel or 6 grams]. "Two gold bands for her arms" (Genesis 24:22) - representing the two tablets. "Ten in weight" - representing the Ten Sayings. "He said: Whose daughter are you? Please tell me [nah li] (Genesis 24:24) - one single night [linah]. "She replied, “I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, whom she bore to Nahor... also room to spend a night.” (Genesis 24:25) - many nights. The man bowed, and prostrated to the LORD (Genesis 24:26) - from here [we learn] that we give thanks for good news. - “Blessed be the LORD, the God of my master Abraham, who has not withheld His steadfast faithfulness”- from your easing the way for me I knew. "From You setting me on the way to the house of the brothers of my master." (Genesis 24:27)
