A wife for Isaac-Genesis 24

Today we discussed who Isaac married.

Abraham sent his servant to the land of his ancestors to find a wife for Isaac. He wanted Isaac to marry someone who was part of the covenant.

Why was this important?

Is it important? How does this relate to our lives?

Abraham understood the importance of having Isaac marry someone within the covenant. Isaac understood this as well which is the reason he did not oppose it.

Isaac was willing to marry Rebekah.

Getting married in the temple should be your goal. There are so many blessings that you can gain from getting married in the temple and having the gospel in your household.
