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.

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】
