1 Samuel 30:12 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 30:12

And they gave him a piece of cake of figs
That were dried and pressed together, and made into cakes:

and two clusters of raisins;
or dried grapes, as the Targum:

and when he had eaten, his spirit came again to him;
he seemed to be quite dispirited, almost lifeless, but upon eating some food he was refreshed, and his spirits revived, and he was capable of conversing:

for he had eaten no bread, nor drank [any] water, three days and three
nights;
that is, one whole day, and part of two days, as appears from ( 1 Samuel 30:13 ) .

1 Samuel 30:12 In-Context

10 Pero doscientos de ellos estaban demasiado cansados para cruzar el arroyo, por lo que David continuó la persecución con cuatrocientos hombres.
11 En el camino encontraron a un egipcio en un campo y lo llevaron a David. Le dieron pan para comer y agua para beber.
12 También le dieron parte de un pastel de higos y dos racimos de pasas, porque no había comido ni bebido nada durante tres días y tres noches. Al poco tiempo recobró sus fuerzas.
13 —¿A quién le perteneces y de dónde vienes? —le preguntó David.
—Soy egipcio, esclavo de un amalecita —respondió—. Mi amo me abandonó hace tres días porque yo estaba enfermo.
14 Regresábamos de asaltar a los cereteos en el Neguev, el territorio de Judá y la tierra de Caleb, y acabábamos de incendiar Siclag.
