  Abraham was now very old, well advanced in years, and the Lord had blessed him in all things. His son Isaac was forty years old but still unmarried, and this weighed heavily on Abraham’s heart. As the heir to God’s covenant promises, Isaac needed a wife who would share his faith and help him raise children who would continue in God’s ways.

  But Abraham faced a serious problem. The Canaanite women who lived around them worshiped false gods and followed pagan customs. Abraham knew that if Isaac married a Canaanite woman, it could lead his family away from the true God and jeopardize the covenant promises.
