Genesis 18:5

וְ אֶקְחָה פַת לֶחֶם וְ סַעֲדוּ לִבְּכֶם אַחַר תַּעֲבֹרוּ כִּי עַל כֵּן עֲבַרְתֶּם עַל עַבְדְּכֶם וַ יֹּאמְרוּ כֵּן תַּעֲשֶׂה כַּ אֲשֶׁר דִּבַּרְתָּ
And I am taking a broken-piece630 of bread, and supporting631 your heart, the back you are passing-by,632 for upon an upright you have crossed-over your slave.` And they say, `Thus you are making as when you have ordered.`
630

Strong’s #6595, path. A morsel, broken piece, fragment. A rather odd offering—only a piece of bread? Or is there something else to this?
