Genesis 43:32
eating .......... eat <03899 0398> [eat bread.]
disgusting <08441> [for that is an abomination.]
The Chaldee Paraphrast renders this clause, "Because the Hebrews eat the cattle which the Egyptians worship." But, as we learn from ver. 16, compared with this verse, that the provision for the entertainment of the Egyptians themselves was animal food, this reason cannot be just. The true reason seems to be that assigned by the LXX., [Bedlyma gar estin tois Aigyptiois pas poim‚n probaton:] "For every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians."
Exodus 8:26
right <03559> [It is not.]
sacrifices ................... sacrifices <02076> [we shall.]
abomination ............ abomination <08441> [the abomination. i.e.,]
The animals which they worshipped; for an account of which, see note on ch. 9:3.
