Okay, so we know that Rebekah was "very beautiful." But that's not all we learn about her. The next two words tell us she was a virgin. Obviously this was important, or we wouldn't have been told that little fact. We also see that Rebekah had a servant's heart, going out of her way to help a weary traveler. And that's what caught the attention of Abraham's servant. After all, good-looking girls are everywhere. Far more rare are girls of stunning inner beauty- found in attitudes of self-control (maintaining purity) and service to others. These qualities make you "very beautiful" indeed. Psalms 139:14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
