The wife of Isaac, the patriarch of ancient Israel. Abraham sent his servants to his hometown to select Rebekah, who was hardworking, considerate, and beautiful, for his son Isaac. Isaac loved Rebekah, and she gave birth to twins Esau and Jacob, but she favored Jacob and cooperated with him in obtaining his father's blessing, which should have been given to his eldest son Esau (Genesis 24, 27).

古代イスラエルの族長イサクの妻。アブラハムはその子イサクのために下僕を故郷に送り,働き者で思いやりに富み美しいリベカを選び出させたという。イサクはリベカを愛し,彼女は双生児のエサウとヤコブを産んだが,ヤコブを偏愛し,彼に協力して長子エサウに向けられるべき父の祝福を得させた(《創世記》24,27)。【並木 浩一】
