Bible Comments

There Not in the tabernacle or temple, where only the priests might eat the most holy things, (Numbers 18:10,) but in the court of the tabernacle, or in some place adjacent to the sanctuary. Ye shall eat Your part of the things mentioned Deuteronomy 12:6; before the Lord In the place of his peculiar presence, where his sanctuary shall be. And ye shall rejoice For God is to be served with delight and gladness, and his worship ought to be a source of consolation to us, and it will be such if we worship him in spirit and truth. In all that you put your hand unto In all your possessions and labours whatsoever, which shall otherwise be accursed to you.

Deuteronomy 12:7

7 And there ye shall eat before the LORD your God, and ye shall rejoice in all that ye put your hand unto, ye and your households, wherein the LORD thy God hath blessed thee.
