פּירוש אויף בראשית 43:32

כי תועבה היא FOR THAT IS AN ABOMINATION — it is a hateful thing to the Egyptians to eat together with the Hebrews. Onkelos states a reason for this.

It would be spitting and a shame for the Egyptians to eat with the people from across the river [ever hanahar], since those people were contemptible in their eyes, and the Egyptians were haughty, as it is written (Isa. 30:7), "I call this, 'They are a threat that has ceased.'" Similarly (Gen. 46:34), "For all shepherds are abhorrent to Egyptians" -- they despised shepherds because sheep were contemptible in their eyes, as it is written (Exod. 8:22), "If we sacrifice that which is untouchable to the Egyptians before their very eyes, will they not stone us!" That which is repulsive to the Egyptians and disgusting, if we sacrifice it before their eyes to our Rock, won't they despise us, stoning us in a shaming way, as we find (II Sam. 15:5-6), "Shim'i ben Geira came out from there, hurling insults as he came. He threw stones" He cursed David and stoned with dirt, in a shaming way.

וישימו לו לבדו, they served him separately as a symbol of his exalted position.
