49:20 Asher’s 1 food will be rich, 2
and he will provide delicacies 3 to royalty.
1 tc Heb “from Asher,” but the initial mem (מ) of the MT should probably be moved to the end of the preceding verse and taken as a plural ending on “heel.”
2 tn The Hebrew word translated “rich,” when applied to products of the ground, means abundant in quantity and quality.
3 tn The word translated “delicacies” refers to foods that were delightful, the kind fit for a king.
