קח נא את ברכתי, the word ברכתי here means: “my gift.” It occurs in this sense in Kings II 5,15 קח נא ברכה מאת עבדך, “please accept a gift from your servant.”

TAKE, I PRAY THEE, MY BLESSING. I.e., the gift. Likewise, Make your blessing with me⁸⁸II Kings 18:31. means “bring me a gift” or “make your peace with me.” So also, Take a blessing of thy servant⁸⁹Ibid., 5:15. means “take a present from thy servant.” They called a gift which a man sends of his own free will “a blessing” because he sends it from that with which G-d had blessed him, just as the verse states, Wherewith the Eternal thy G-d hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him,⁹⁰Deuteronomy 15:14. and just as Scripture said above, And he took of that which he had with him.⁹¹Above, 32:14. However, a specific gift of that which has been agreed upon as due the king is called mas (tribute).
