Holman Christian Standard Bible
He sent his father the following: 10 donkeys carrying the best products of Egypt and 10 female donkeys carrying grain, food, and provisions for his father on the journey.

laden with. Heb. carrying.
meat As {mazon} is derived from {zoon}, to prepare, provide, Dr. A. Clarke thinks it may mean here {prepared meat}, some made up dish, delicacies, confectionaries, etc. In Asiatic countries they have several curious methods of preserving flesh by {potting}, by which it may be kept, for any length of time, sweet and wholesome. Some delicacy, similar to the savoury meat which Isaac loved, may here be intended; sent to Jacob in consideration of his age, and to testify the respect of his son; for of other kinds of meat he could have no need, as he had large flocks and herds, and could kill a lamb, kid, etc. when he pleased.
