Rivqah (Rebekah) appears 30 times, almost entirely within the patriarchal narratives of Genesis 22-29 and 35, with a single retrospective mention in Genesis 49:31 at the cave of Machpelah. She is introduced as the daughter of Bethuel and grandniece of Abraham (Gen 22:23), then dominates the longest chapter in Genesis — the servant's quest for Isaac's bride (Gen 24), where her extraordinary hospitality at the well signals divine election. Her most consequential act is masterminding Jacob's deception to secure the firstborn blessing from blind Isaac (Gen 27:5-17), a moment that reshapes Israel's covenant lineage. Deborah, her nurse, receives a memorial notice at her death (Gen 35:8). The Septuagint renders the name as Rebekka, and translations across languages preserve it with minimal variation: Spanish 'Rebeca,' French 'Rebecca,' German 'Rebekka.'
