COGGenesis 24:1 And Abraham was old, and well stricken in age: and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.
And Abraham
The entire chapter is highly typical:
(1) Abraham, type of a certain king who would make a marriage for his son Matthew 22:2; John 6:44.
(2) the unnamed servant, type of the Holy Spirit, who does not "speak of himself," but takes of the things of the Bridegroom with which to win the bride John 16:13,14.
(3) the servant, type of the Spirit as enriching the bride with the Bridegroom's gifts Galatians 5:22; 1 Corinthians 12:7-11.
(4) the servant, type of the Spirit as bringing the bride to the meeting with the Bridegroom Acts 13:4; 16:6,7; Romans 8:11; 1 Thessalonians 4:14-16.
(5) Rebekah, type of the Church, the ecclesia, the "called out" virgin bride of Christ Genesis 24:16; 2 Corinthians 11:2; Ephesians 5:25-32.
(6) Isaac, type of the Bridegroom, "whom not having seen," the bride loves through the testimony of the unnamed Servant 1 Peter 1:8.
(7) Isaac, type of the Bridegroom who goes out to meet and receive His bride Genesis 24:63; 1 Thessalonians 4:14-16.
