What does Genesis 24:54 mean?

With his oath to Abraham satisfied and his duty to secure a wife for Isaac satisfied in miraculous time, the servant finally allows himself to relax. He and his men eat and drink and rest for the night. When morning comes, however, the servant is back on duty. He is eager to get on the road and back home to Abraham and Isaac, much more quickly than Rebekah's family anticipated she would be leaving (Genesis 24:55). Knowing that she would be leaving for a distant land, likely forever, they will attempt to convince Abraham's servant to let Rebekah stay a few more days.
