Charles Ellicott Commentary Genesis 27:26

"And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son." — Genesis 27:26 (ASV)

Come near now, and kiss me, my son. — This was the solemn preparation for the giving of the blessing. Isaac’s suspicions had now quite passed away. He had eaten and drunk, and the time had now come for the decision which son was to inherit the promise.
