Genesis 26:30 - Exposition

And he made them a feast ,—so Lot did to the angels ( Genesis 19:3 ). There is no mention of any banquet in the case of Abraham's covenant, which may be noted as another point of difference between the two transactions. A similar entertainment accompanied Jacob's covenant with Laban ( Genesis 31:54 ); while in the Mosaic system the sacrificial meal formed an integral part of the regularly-appointed sacrificial worship (Le Genesis 7:15 , 31; Deuteronomy 12:7 , Deuteronomy 12:17 ; vide Kurtz, 'Sacrificial Worship,' § 79)— and they did eat and drink.
