The Beauty of Kindness
After Rivka graciously provided water for Eliezer and his camels, Eliezer gave her the jewelry that Avraham sent for Yitzchak's wife to be. Yet since Eliezer did not yet clarify her family lineage, why did he give her the jewelry? Eliezer knew that Avraham loved kindness so much, that he would have wanted to give the precious gifts to such a ba'alas chesed, even if her lineage was not fitting for Yitzchak!
Lesson: The attribute of loving kindness is the clear sign of a spiritual worthy person.
App: Give a gift to a person who has done a kind deed for you.
