Psalms 69:21 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink. They gave me also gall for my meat - Even the food, necessary to preserve us in their slavery, was frequently mingled with what rendered it unpleasant and disgusting, though not absolutely unwholesome. And vinegar, sour small wines, was given us for our beverage. This is applied to our Lord, Matthew 27:34, where the reader is requested to consult the notes.
