Abraham sent isaac back to his homeland to get a wife. a. True b. False

Answer 1

Answer: b. False

Abraham sent Eliezer, his steward, to Mesopotamia to find Isaac a wife, from his nephew Bethuel’s family (Gen 25:20). Eliezer brought back Rebekah, who after many years of marriage with no children believed to be barren. Isaac, however, prayed to the Lord and she conceived Esau (Isaac’s favourite) and Jacob (favoured by Rebekah).
