<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Iconodule, post: 10930646, member: 91417&quot;]Abraham sent his servant to find a bride for his son Isaac.&nbsp; The servant asked God to give him a sign, when he asked the right young woman at the well for drink, she would also offer to draw water for his camels.&nbsp; (Obviously, a woman who was kind to animals would be a loving and virtuous wife.)</p><p><br /></p><p>It is a bit blurry in the photo.&nbsp; I assume those are camels just behind the well.&nbsp; Otherwise, the artist missed the whole point on how to identify the right maiden.&nbsp; Going to the work of drawing enough water for ten camels (Genesis 24:10) is the identifying factor.</p><p><br /></p><p>Genesis 24: 14-19&nbsp; (Full story Genesis 24)</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://latinvulgate.com/verse.aspx?t=0&amp;b=1&amp;c=24" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://latinvulgate.com/verse.aspx?t=0&amp;b=1&amp;c=24" rel="nofollow">https://latinvulgate.com/verse.aspx?t=0&amp;b=1&amp;c=24</a></p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;Now, therefore, the maid to whom I shall say: Let down thy pitcher that I may drink: and she shall answer, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let it be the same whom thou hast provided for thy servant Isaac: and by this, I shall understand that thou hast shewn kindness to my master.</p><p><br /></p><p>He had not yet ended these words within himself, and behold Rebecca came out, the daughter of Bathuel, son of Melcha, wife to Nachor the brother of Abraham, having a pitcher on her shoulder:</p><p>An exceeding comely maid, and a most beautiful virgin, and not known to man: and she went down to the spring, and filled her pitcher, and was coming back.</p><p><br /></p><p>And the servant ran to meet her, and said: Give me a little water to drink of thy pitcher.</p><p><br /></p><p>And she answered: Drink, my lord.
