Point 1: Father desired a gentile bride for his son, Isaac, and sent a servant to find her. (Liken the servant to the Holy Spirit and His work.)

Point 3: Rebekah is told of the father's desire and greatness, as well as his loving purposes for the "Son of the Promise." Point 4: It was Rebekah alone who must ultimately answer the call.
