Canoodle
To canoodle is to caress, fondle, or pet amorously.
Abimelech discovered that Isaac and Rebekah were not brother and sister as they had claimed when he caught them canoodling.
It came about, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out through a window, and saw, and behold, Isaac was caressing his wife Rebekah. (Genesis 26:8, NASB)
Note: This sketch of Isaac and Rebekah comes from the after workshop of Raphael Sanzio (1483-1520). It is owned by the Louvre.
