Genesi 27:24 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 27:24

And said, [art] thou my very son Esau?
&c.] Still having some doubt on his mind whether he really was so or not, because of his voice: and he said, I [am];
as for the observation of Jarchi upon this, in order to excuse Jacob from lying, that he does not say, "I am Esau", only "I", it will not do, since it is an answer to Isaac's question, with a design to deceive him; and he intended by it that he should understand him as he did, that he was really Esau.

Genesi 27:24 In-Context

22 Giacobbe dunque s’avvicinò a Isacco suo padre e, come questi l’ebbe tastato, disse: "La voce è la voce di Giacobbe; ma le mani son le mani d’Esaù".
23 E non lo riconobbe, perché le mani di lui eran pelose come le mani di Esaù suo fratello: e lo benedisse. E disse:
24 "Sei tu proprio il mio figliuolo Esaù?" Egli rispose: "Sì".
25 E Isacco gli disse: "Servimi ch’io mangi della caccia del mio figliuolo e l’anima mia ti benedica". E Giacobbe lo servì, e Isacco mangiò. Giacobbe gli portò anche del vino, ed egli bevve.
26 Poi Isacco suo padre gli disse: "Deh, fatti vicino e baciami, figliuol mio".
