My meat . . . I gave— (Hosea 2:8).
set it before them—as a minchah or "meat offering" (Leviticus 2:1).
a sweet savour—literally "a savor of rest," that is, whereby they might be propitiated, and be at peace ("rest") with you; how ridiculous to seek to propitiate gods of wood!
thus it was—The fact cannot be denied, for I saw it, and say it was so, saith Jehovah.
