Rashi’s commentary on Genesis 25:20 says: forty years old: For when Abraham came from Mount Moriah, he was informed that Rebecca had been born. Isaac was then thirty-seven years old, for at that time Sarah died, and from the time that Isaac was born until the “Binding” [of Isaac], when Sarah died, were thirty-seven years, for she was ninety years old when Isaac was born, and one hundred and twenty-seven when she died, as it is stated (above 23:1): “The life of Sarah was [a hundred and twenty-seven years.”] This makes Isaac thirty-seven years old, and at that time, Rebecca was born. HE WAITED FOR HER UNTIL SHE WOULD BE FIT FOR MARITAL RELATIONS-THREE YEARS-AND THEN MARRIED HER.— [From Gen. Rabbah 57:1] [Retrieved it from this website: http://www.chabad.org/library/bible_cdo/aid/8220/showrashi/true%5D
Rabbi Tobiah Ben Eliezer (1050 – 1108 AD) also confirms that she was 3-years-old when she was married to Isaac:
“Isaac was thirty-seven-years old at his binding… When Abraham returned from Mount Moriah, at that very moment Sarah died, and Isaac was then thirty-seven; and at that very time Abraham was told of Rebekah’s birth; THUS WE FIND THAT REBECCA WAS THREE YEARS OLD WHEN SHE MARRIED ISAAC.” (Pesikta Zutrata (Lekah Tov), Gen. 24., Midrashic commentary on the Pentateuch, by Rabbi Tobiah Ben Eliezer)
1. Sarah was 90 when Abraham was 100 (Genesis 17:17).
2. Abraham was 100 when Isaac was born (Genesis 21:5).
3. Sarah died at aged 127 (Genesis 23:1-2).
4. Isaac was 40 when he married Rebekah (Genesis 25:20).
5. Sarah was 90 when Isaac was born (conclusion from 1 and 2 above)
6. Isaac was 37 when his mother Sarah died (because 127-90=37)
7. Since Isaac was 37 at his mother’s death, he was 37 when Rebekah was born.
8. Since Isaac was 40 when he married Rebekah, Rebekah would be 3 when the marriage took place (because 40-37=3)
@Deleted User I'm not sure what the verses should really prove regarding her age
The ones you sent
If you actually read the bible it says that she was an adult and fully consented to the marriage
@Ja We want nothing to do with Imperator and we are allies of the Reich
@Muhammad Al-Tajir The thing is... you are implying that Sarah was 127 years old when Rebekah was born, which is not the case. If we follow your logic, it would mean that Rebekah’s uncles and father were 3 years old too. Sarah was 127 **when Abraham was informed** of their birth, the birth of Rebekah, her father and her uncles, but it doesn’t mean that Sarah was 127 when they were born.
We do not actually know when they were born.
Also, other passages in the Bible indicate that she was defiantly not a 3 year old.
such as?
also hadiths also indicate that aisha was not a little girl like people imagine in their heads
generalizing
just like @Deleted User does
Aisha also consented to the marriage
"16 An exceeding comely maid, and a most beautiful virgin, and not known to man: and she went down to the spring, and filled her pitcher and was coming back.
17 And the servant ran to meet her, and said: Give me a little water to drink of thy pitcher.
18 And she answered: Drink, my lord. And quickly she let down the pitcher upon her arm, and gave him drink.
19 And when he had drunk, she said: I will draw water for thy camels also, till they all drink.
20 And pouring out the pitcher into the troughs, she ran back to the well to draw water: and having drawn she gave to all the camels."
Genesis 24:16-20
3 year old children can barely walk, let alone do these things.

21 Hus the firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Camuel the father of the Syrians,
22 And Cased, and Azau, and Pheldas, and Jedlaph,
23 And Bathuel, of whom was born Rebecca: These eight did Melcha bear to Nachor Abraham's brother.
24 And his concubine, named Roma, bore Tabee, and Gaham, and Tahas, and Maacha.
Genesis 22:20-24
We don't know when they were born

>(((Rabbis)))
The rabbinical commentaries and midrashim contain quite a bit of speculation with minimal support from the Hebrew text, and which are sometimes contradictory, pitting one school's interpretation against another.
