Genesis 18:5
And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.
And I will fetch a morsel of bread,.... A piece or a loaf of bread, as De Dieu shows the word signifies; bread being put for all the necessaries of life:
and comfort ye your hearts; eat to refresh your spirits and renew your strength, that ye may be able to pursue your journey: and
after that ye shall pass on your way; I will retard you no longer:
for therefore are ye come to your servant; not that he thought they came this way on purpose to take some refreshment with him, but so it was ordered by the providence of God; and since it was, he desires that they would accept of his invitation:
And they said, So do as thou hast said; they agreed to it, that water should be fetched to wash their feet, and food for them to eat.
