Who this is

Eliezer was most likely the name of Abraham's chief servant, sent to find a wife for Isaac, though he is named directly only once, when Abraham worried before Isaac's birth that this servant would become his heir instead of a son of his own body. Moses also named his second son Eliezer, meaning my God is my help.
