* meat.
As {mazon} is derived from {zoon,} to prepare, provide, Dr.
A. Clarke thinks it may mean here prepared meat; some made-up
dish, delicacies, confectionaries, etc. In Asiatic countries
they have several curious methods of preserving flesh by
potting, by which it may be kept, for any length of time,
sweet and wholesome. Some delicacy, similar to the savoury
meat which Isaac loved, may here be intended; sent to Jacob
in consideration of his age, and to testify the respect of
his son; for of other kinds of meat he could have no need, as
he had large flocks and herds, and could kill a lamb, kid,
etc. when he pleased.
