Gill's Notes on the Bible
And all the people went their way to eat and to drink,.... Freely and cheerfully:
and to send portions; to the poor, who had nothing to eat and drink:
and to make great mirth; with music, vocal and instrumental:
because they had understood the words that were declared unto them; the meaning of the several laws read and explained unto them, whereby they better understood their duty, and in what instances and in what manner it was to be performed; how much more reason is there for joy and gladness, when the Gospel, and the doctrines of it, are clearly known and understood? Psalms 89:15.
