A Picture of Extreme Plenty
Commentators explain that this verse paints a picture of extreme prosperity. In this future time of blessing, even working animals like oxen and donkeys will eat the finest food. They will be fed "savory provender"—a high-quality, seasoned grain mixture that has been winnowed (separated from chaff), a process normally reserved for human food. This signifies a level of abundance that overflows to every part of creation.
