Act 2 — SCENE II

Reading edition

Place: Rebekah's home.

In this scene comes the discussion of Rebekah's leaving home to become the wife of Isaac. The messenger makes known to the family that it is Abraham, their kinsman, who is sending for Rebekah. He gives Rebekah the gifts which his master has sent—earrings, bracelets, and the like. The family finally decide that Rebekah may go back to Canaan, but they ask the servant to let her stay with them for ten days longer. He is unwilling to wait, and the question is therefore put to Rebekah. She answers that she will go with him now.
