Re: Isaac and Rebekah and Jacob and Rachael
I figured out from Gen.11:27-30 and Gen.22:22 that Rebekah and Isaac were not first cousins. Abraham's brother Nahor, had a son called Bethuel. Bethuel was the father of Rebekah. So they were cousins, once removed on one side. Isaac married his cousin's daughter in other words. I think we will read more about Laban later

It seems strange and a sin this days to marry your sister or cousin. But it seems to be done.
