“And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother: and his mother made savoury meat, such as his father loved.”
So he went and got them and brought them to his mother, and she prepared some tasty food, just the way his father liked it. The compliance is complete — Jacob goes, gets, brings. The mother's skills are deployed in full. The practical preparation for the deception is meticulous. The application: the thoroughness of the preparation for a deception does not make the deception more morally acceptable; it makes it more extensive.
