Genesis 22:20-24
"Rebekah's Family"
Here, we have a foreshadowing of what is to come. We are told of Abraham's brother to whom was born 6 sons and 2 grandchildren of note: Aram and Rebekah. What is the foreshadowing? This very same Rebekah would become the wife of Isaac (Gen. 24:15).
From what I can see here, our God is a God who pays attention to details. God had a woman in mind for Isaac, so He began preparing for her before Isaac was born. I find it significant, in this manner, that the details of Rebekah's family come before the marriage of Isaac, even to the point of having another part of the story in between them.
Kinda gives some extra credence to the "God has a plan for your life" statements in the Bible.
