This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
1Sa_21:5 And David answered the priest, and said unto him, Of a truth women [have been] kept from us about these three days, since I came out, and the vessels of the young men are holy, and [the bread is] in a manner common, yea, though it were sanctified this day in the vessel.
Ver. 5. And the vessels of the young men.] That is, Their bodies, as 2Co_4:7 1Th_4:3-4, or as some understand it, their knapsacks, wallets, baskets, &c., as 1Sa_9:7. Vatablus understandeth it of their garments.
Yea, though it were sanctified this day in the vessel.] Or, Especially when this day there is other sanctified in the vessel: and this seemeth to be the better translation. Hence some collect that it was on the Sabbath day that David came to Nob: since then the shewbread was to be renewed.
