And my master made me swear (See Gill on Genesis 24:3). In ( Genesis 24:37-41 ) , the servant relates the oath his master made him take, and the charge he gave him, much in the same language as in ( Genesis 24:3-8 ) .
35
The LORD has greatly blessed my master, and he has become great. He has given him flocks and herds, silver and gold, male servants and female servants, camels and donkeys.
36
And Sarah my master's wife bore a son to my master when she was old, and to him he has given all that he has.
37
My master made me swear, saying, 'You shall not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell,
38
but you shall go to my father's house and to my clan and take a wife for my son.'
39
I said to my master, 'Perhaps the woman will not follow me.'
