Hypocritical, or profane, as this word signifies, Job 8:13, Job 13:16 15:34 17:8, and, as some add, in all other places. Mockers; whose common practice it is to scoff at and deride others, and me in particular. In feasts; or, of or for a cake; or, a morsel of bread, as this word signifies, 1 Kings 17:12,13 1 Kings 19:6; by which he further shows what vile and worthless persons these were, that would transgress for a morsel of bread, as it is said, Proverbs 28:21. They made themselves buffoons and jesters, and accustomed themselves to mock and deride David, that thereby they might gain admittance to the acquaintance and tables of great men, where they might fill their bellies; which was all that they sought for, or got by it. They gnashed upon me with their teeth; they used all expressions of rage and hatred against me, among which this was one, Job 16:9 Lamentations 2:16. This they did to curry favour with my great and potent adversaries.
