Nahor&#8217;s son by Miclah, nephew of Abraham, father of Rebekah (Gen 22:22-23; Gen 24:15; Gen 24:24; Gen 24:47; Gen 28:2). Bethuel appears personally only in Gen 24:50, and then after his son. Blunt (Undesigned Coincidences) notices Bethuel&#8217;s consistent insignificance in the whole affair of his daughter&#8217;s marriage. When Abraham&#8217;s servant at the well asks Rebekah, &#8220;Is there room in thy father&#8217;s house for us?&#8221; she &#8220;ran and told them of her mother&#8217;s house&#8221; (not of her father&#8217;s, as Rachel did when Jacob introduced himself: Gen 29:12).<\/p>\n<p>Laban her brother ran out and invited him in, not Bethuel, the natural person to do it. The servant makes presents of jewels and precious things to Rebekah, &#8220;and to her brother, and to her mother,&#8221; but not to Bethuel. The brother and mother propose her abiding a few days before going. Finally, in the next generation, Rebekah&#8217;s son, in inquiring after his kindred, asks, &#8220;Know ye Laban, the son of Nahor?&#8221; the father&#8217;s name being omitted and the grandfather&#8217;s substituted (Gen 29:5). The consistency of omission is too marked to be accidental, and yet such as a forger would never have devised. Bethuel was probably incapable, from age or imbecility, of managing his own affairs; but see Laban. (See LABAN.)<\/p>\n<p>2. A place (See BETHUL.)

In the last-named passage, he is surnamed the Syrian. The only place where he appears as a leading character in the narrative is in connection with Rebekah&#8217;s betrothal to Isaac; and even here, his son Laban stands out more prominently than he &#8211; a fact explainable on the ground of the custom which recognized the right of the brother to take a special interest in the welfare of the sister (compare Gen 34:5, Gen 34:21, Gen 34:25; 2Sa 13:20, 2Sa 13:22).
