"So he brought him into his house, and gave provender unto the asses: and they washed their feet, and did eat and drink."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
So he brought him into his house,.... Showed him the way to it, and in a kind and friendly manner introduced him, and bid him welcome: and gave provender unto
the asses; this is mentioned first, it being then perhaps, as now, the first thing that a careful man is concerned for, to see that his cattle is taken care of, and then himself; and such a method this ancient good man took with his guest: and they washed their feet; which was commonly done to strangers in those hot countries, and was very refreshing, see Gen 18:4 . and did eat and drink; sat down at table and supped with him.
