Deuteronomy 33:24 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Rather, “Blessed above the sons” (i. e. of Jacob-most blessed among the sons of Jacob) “be Asher; let him he the favored one of his brethren,” i. e., the one favored of God. The plenty with which this tribe should be blessed is described under the figure of dipping the foot in oil (compare the marginal reference).

Deuteronomy 33:24
