Chasidut к Берешит 24:33
ויישם [וַיּוּשַׂ֤ם] לְפָנָיו֙ לֶאֱכֹ֔ל וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ לֹ֣א אֹכַ֔ל עַ֥ד אִם־דִּבַּ֖רְתִּי דְּבָרָ֑י וַיֹּ֖אמֶר דַּבֵּֽר׃
И была поставлена пища перед ним, чтобы есть; но он сказал:'Я не буду есть, пока не скажу свое поручение.' И сказал он: 'Говори дальше.'
Kedushat Levi
Genesis 24,33. “I will not eat until after I have said what I have come here to say.” Eliezer betrothed Rivkah in his capacity as Yitzchok’s representative. It is a rule that on the day of his wedding, the groom is not allowed to eat until after he has wed the bride. [Nowadays both groom and bride fast until after the ceremony. Ed.]
