SF - The Primacy of Loving Kindness

In a beautiful display of loving-kindness, Rivka graciously drew water for Eliezer and his camels, when they arrived at the well. As soon as the camels finished drinking, Eliezer gave Rivka the gold jewelry that Avraham sent for Yitzchak's prospective wife. Surprisingly, Eliezer gave her the jewelry before verifying her family lineage. What if it turned out that Rivka was not from the patriarchal family? Eliezer knew that Avraham loved kindness so much, that he would invite travelers to his home for a meal, that he didn't even know. What's more, when someone would show kindness to others, Avraham would reward their good deeds with unique gifts. In light of this, Eliezer knew that Avraham would agree to give the precious gifts to Rivka as a reward for her wonderful kindness, even if she was not from the required lineage to be Yitzchak's wife!


The attribute of loving-kindness, in and of itself, is the clear sign of a spiritual worthy person. The perfect virtue of loving-kindness is deserving of unique gifts. 


Envision Rivka filling her pitcher with water from the well and graciously serving Eliezer, his attendants, and camels. See her joyously run to the well several times to provide them with an abundance of fresh, cool water. Imagine Eliezer so amazed by Rivka's kindness, that he is moved to give her the precious gold jewelry. Flow with loving-kindness; and praise your friends for performing acts of kindness.
