Then he distributed to every man and woman of Israel a loaf of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake.
It was a glorious day when the ark of God was safely lodged in the tent David had pitched for it. That good man had his heart much upon it, could not sleep contentedly till it was done, Psa 132:4, Psa 132:5. I. The circumstances of the ark were now, 1. Better than what they had been.
Commenting on 1 Chronicles 16:1-6
flagon of wine--The two latter words are a supplement by our translators, and the former is, in other versions, rendered not a "flagon," but a "cake," a confection, as the Septuagint renders it, made of flour and honey.
To every one a loaf of bread - A whole cake. A good piece of flesh; "the sixth part of an ox, and the sixth part of a hin of wine." - T. See Sa2 6:18-20; see Jarchi also.
