        DefinitionShort: a meal whether simple or elaborate (this generic meaning of ἄριστον is in contrast with the more specific meaning of {L:ἄριστον}[b], {D:23.23})

        Glosses: ['a meal', 'a banquet', 'a feast']

        Comments: Though ἄριστον[a], {L:δεῖπνον}[a], and {L:βρῶσις}[b] are highly generic in this usage, it is not necessary to translate these terms by a corresponding generic term in another language, since a more specific term may fit the context more satisfactorily. In fact, a generic term might be quite inappropriate in that it would suggest in the case of {S:04100602100020} that Herod was quite stingy in simply providing an ordinary meal for his officials.
