EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Eliezer and Rebekkah / Rebecca at the well - Bible" transports us back to biblical times, immersing us in a profound moment of faith and destiny. The image beautifully captures the essence of Genesis XXIV 17-20, where Eliezer encounters Rebekkah at the well. In this scene, we witness Eliezer as he presents a gold nose ring weighing a beka and two gold bracelets weighing ten shekels to Rebekkah. As their eyes meet, curiosity fills the air as Eliezer asks about her lineage and if there is room for them to spend the night in her father's house. With grace and confidence, Rebekkah reveals herself as Bethuel's daughter, explaining that Eliezer has been sent by Isaac to find him a wife.
