2 Samuel 6:19 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 6:19

And he dealt among all the people
Gave a dole unto them, divided among them:

[even] among the whole multitude of Israel:
and if there were so many as at first, there were thirty thousand of them, ( 2 Samuel 6:1 ) ; and perhaps more, since it follows:

as well to the women as men;
to both the one and the other; and the women, it is very probable, were not among those that went to fetch the ark, but assembled to attend the entrance of it into the city, and were present at the solemnities of its settlement:

to everyone a cake of bread;
or a loaf of bread, of what quantity is not said, no doubt sufficient for anyone person, or more:

and a good piece [of flesh]:
not only that was good in quality, but large in quantity, a very large piece of it; the Jews say ^F19 the sixth part of a bullock, they dividing it into six parts as we into four quarters; but it is not likely that such a quantity of flesh should be given to each person;

and a flagon [of wine];
but what such a vessel held cannot be said, though at least we may suppose it equal to a bottle of ours, or more; see ( Song of Solomon 2:5 ) ( Hosea 3:1 ) ;

so all the people departed everyone to his house;
to refresh themselves with the provisions David had given them.

2 Samuel 6:19 In-Context

17 Eles trouxeram a arca do SENHOR e a colocaram na tenda que Davi lhe havia preparado; e Davi ofereceu holocaustos e sacrifícios de comunhão perante o SENHOR.

18 Após oferecer os holocaustos e os sacrifícios de comunhão, ele abençoou o povo em nome do SENHOR dos Exércitos

19 e deu um pão, um bolo de tâmaras e um bolo de uvas passas a cada homem e a cada mulher israelita. Depois todo o povo partiu, cada um para a sua casa.

20 Voltando Davi para casa para abençoar sua família, Mical, filha de Saul, saiu ao seu encontro e lhe disse: “Como o rei de Israel se destacou hoje, tirando o manto na frente das escravas de seus servos, como um homem vulgar!”

21 Mas Davi disse a Mical: “Foi perante o SENHOR que eu dancei, perante aquele que me escolheu em lugar de seu pai ou de qualquer outro da família dele, quando me designou soberano sobre o povo do SENHOR, sobre Israel; perante o SENHOR celebrarei
