“And she gave the savoury meat and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.”
Then she handed to her son Jacob the tasty food and the bread she had made. The provision is complete: food, bread, disguise. Jacob is fully equipped for the deception. What follows is the execution of a plan that was conceived from the right theological knowledge (Jacob should have the blessing) through the wrong means (deception of a blind old man). The application: the provision of everything needed for a wrong action does not make the action right. The fullness of the preparation is simply the fullness of the sin.
