Bible Verse Review

Bring: 1 Samuel 1:5, Genesis 43:34

Reciprocal: Psalms 11:6 - portion

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Samuel said unto the cook,.... That dressed and prepared the food for the entertainment of the guests:

bring the portion which I gave thee; to dress; for part of the provisions of the feast was Samuel's, and the other part the people's that brought the peace offerings:

of which I said unto thee, set it by thee; do not bring it in with the rest, but keep it in the kitchen till called for.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 9:23. Said unto the cook — טבח tabbach, here rendered cook; the singular of טבחות tabbachoth, female cooks, 1 Samuel 8:13, from the root tabach, to slay or butcher. Probably the butcher is here meant.
