Bava Metzia 87a:2 interprets the Genesis scene in which Abraham offers a little bread and then provides a generous welcome, teaching people to say little and do much. This adaptation creates an ordinary modern visit prepared by the people offering it. The surrounding discussions of family and workers' meals are not turned into a rule requiring relatives or workers to take on extra labor. Ara, Jin, the visit, water, fruit and all dialogue are fictional, without claiming religious rewards or guaranteed benefits.
