Psalms 81:16

Compare all

14 I would soon subdue their enemies,
And turn My hand against their adversaries.

15 ^aThe haters of the Lord would pretend submission to Him,
But their¹ fate would endure forever.

16 He would ^ahave fed them also with the finest of wheat;
And with honey ^bfrom the rock I would have satisfied you.”

Psalms 81:16

With the finest of the wheat - mecheleb chittah ; literally, with the fat of wheat, as in the margin.

Honey out of the rock - And he fed thaim of the grese of whete: And of the hony stane he thaim filled. Old Psalter. Thus paraphrased: "He fed thaim with the body of Criste and gastely understandyng; and of hony that ran of the stane, that is, of the wisedome that is swete to the hert." Several of the fathers understand this place of Christ.
