Genesis 24:37

God's Word

My master made me swear this oath: ‘Don’t get a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I’m living.

See the chapter Copy

Instead, go to my father’s home and to my relatives, and get my son a wife.’

Rebekah said to Isaac, “I can’t stand Hittite women! If Jacob marries a Hittite woman like one of those from around here, I might as well die.”

The sons of God saw that the daughters of other humans were beautiful. So they married any woman they chose.
