Abram and Nahor took wives. Abram's wife was named Sarai, and Nahor's wife was named Milkah [meaning: "queen"], the daughter of Haran – father of Milkah and father of Iskah [meaning: "one who watches and is observant"].
And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, "Behold, Milcah has borne [eight] children to your brother Nahor." [Gen. 11:29]
And it came to pass, while he was still speaking, that Rebekah came out [even before he had finished his prayer], born to Bethuel, the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, and she had her pitcher on her shoulder.
I asked her, 'Whose daughter are you?' and she replied, 'I am the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Nahor, whom Milcah bore to him.' Then I put the ring on her nose and the bracelets on her wrists.
