Genesis 31:33

Jacob told Rachel that he was her father’s relative, and that he was Rebekah’s son. She ran and told her father.

Whoever finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of Yahweh.

By faith, he lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in a land not his own, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise.

All his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted. He said, “For I will go down to Sheol to my son, mourning.” His father wept for him.

After many days, Shua’s daughter, the wife of Judah, died. Judah was comforted, and went up to his sheep shearers to Timnah, he and his friend Hirah, the Adullamite.

King David longed to go out to Absalom; for he was comforted concerning Amnon, since he was dead.

Yahweh said to Cain, “Where is Abel, your brother?” He said, “I don’t know. Am I my brother’s keeper?”

Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah, and said, “Quickly prepare three seahs of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes.”

They asked him, “Where is Sarah, your wife?” He said, “There, in the tent.”

Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham’s brother.

The young lady ran, and told her mother’s house about these words.

I bowed my head, and worshiped Yahweh, and blessed Yahweh, the God of my master Abraham, who had led me in the right way to take my master’s brother’s daughter for his son.

Then Laban and Bethuel answered, “The thing proceeds from Yahweh. We can’t speak to you bad or good.

Her brother and her mother said, “Let the young lady stay with us a few days, at least ten. After that she will go.”

Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife. He loved her. So Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.

Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Paddan Aram, the sister of Laban the Syrian, to be his wife.

Jacob loved Rachel. He said, “I will serve you seven years for Rachel, your younger daughter.”

Jacob served seven years for Rachel. They seemed to him but a few days, for the love he had for her.

I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother. I bowed down mourning, as one who mourns his mother.

She is loud and defiant. Her feet don’t stay in her house.

I would lead you, bringing you into the house of my mother, who would instruct me. I would have you drink spiced wine, of the juice of my pomegranate.

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it;

Husbands, love your wives, and don’t be bitter against them.

But we don’t want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep, so that you don’t grieve like the rest, who have no hope.

For this we tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep.

I desire therefore that the younger widows marry, bear children, rule the household, and give no occasion to the adversary for insulting.

to be sober minded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that God’s word may not be blasphemed.
