What does Genesis 24:53 mean?

After securing the approval of Rebekah's brother and father to take her with him back to the land of Canaan to marry Isaac (Genesis 24:51), the servant now concludes the arrangement with the giving of gifts to Rebekah, her mother, and her brother Laban. These gifts include silver and gold jewelry, as well as garments and expensive ornaments. These gifts would be part of the traditional wedding dowry of the times, items of value given to both the bride and the family of the bride by the bridegroom's family.
