30 Non si erano ancora distolti dalle loro brame, avevano ancora il loro cibo in bocca,

Salmi 78:30 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 78:30

They were not estranged from their lust
By the goodness and liberality of God unto them, they were not brought to repentance for their sin of lusting; nor did they abstain from their fleshly lusts, or deny themselves of them, which the grace of God teaches to do; or else the sense is, what they lusted after, flesh, was not withheld from them, or they restrained from eating it; they were indulged with it for a whole month together; to which agrees what follows:

but while their meat was yet in their mouths;
the meat of the quails, while it was between their teeth, ere it was chewed, and before it was swallowed down, while they were rolling this sweet morsel under their tongues, and were gorging themselves with it, destruction came upon them, as follows; just as Belshazzar, while he was feasting with his nobles, in the midst of his mirth and jollity, was slain by the Persians, ( Daniel 5:1-30 ) .

Salmi 78:30 In-Context

28 e li fece cadere in mezzo al loro campo, d’intorno alle loro tende.

29 Così essi mangiarono e furon ben satollati, e Dio mandò loro quel che aveano bramato.

30 Non si erano ancora distolti dalle loro brame, avevano ancora il loro cibo in bocca,

31 quando l’ira di Dio si levò contro loro, e ne uccise tra i più fiorenti, e abbatté i giovani d’Israele.

32 Con tutto ciò peccarono ancora, e non credettero alle sue maraviglie.
