And Isaac answered and said unto Esau,.... Giving an account of the blessing be had bestowed upon his brother:behold, I have made him thy lord; the lord of his posterity, who would be subdued and become tributary to his seed:and all his brethren have I given to him for servants; the Edomites, who sprung from his brother Esau, who, according to this prophetic blessing, became servants to David, who was a son of Jacob's,See Gill on "Ge 27:29";and with corn and wine have I sustained him; promised him a fruitful country, the land of Canaan, abounding with all good things, particularly with corn and wine, which are put for all the rest:and what shall I do now unto thee, my son?
what is there remains? what can be bestowed upon thee? there is nothing left; dominion over others, even over all nations, yea, over thyself and thy posterity, and plenty of all good things, are given already to Jacob; what is there to be done for thee, or thou canst expect?
