Genesis 27:17 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 27:17

And she gave the savoury meat
Seasoned and dressed in such a manner as might be taken for venison: and the bread which she had prepared
to eat with it, into the hand of her son Jacob;
the dish of meat in one hand, and the bread in the other.

Genesis 27:17 In-Context

15 Then she took Esau’s favorite clothes, which were there in the house, and gave them to her younger son, Jacob.
16 She covered his arms and the smooth part of his neck with the skin of the young goats.
17 Then she gave Jacob the delicious meal, including freshly baked bread.
18 So Jacob took the food to his father. “My father?” he said. “Yes, my son,” Isaac answered. “Who are you—Esau or Jacob?”
19 Jacob replied, “It’s Esau, your firstborn son. I’ve done as you told me. Here is the wild game. Now sit up and eat it so you can give me your blessing.”
