Genesis 27:23 — Meaning and Application

And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I may feel thee, my son, whether thou {be} my very son Esau or not.

And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt him, and said, The voice {is} Jacob's voice, but the hands {are} the hands of Esau.

And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy, as his brother Esau's hands: so he blessed him.

And he said, {Art} thou my very son Esau? And he said, I {am}.

And he said, Bring {it} near to me, and I will eat of my son's venison, that my soul may bless thee. And he brought {it} near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine, and he drank.
