Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
Two hundred loaves of bread - The word loaf gives us a false idea of the ancient Jewish bread; it was thin cakes, not yeasted and raised like ours.
Bunches of raisins - See on I Samuel 25:18 (note).
Summer fruits - These were probably pumpions, cucumbers, or watermelons. The two latter are extensively used in those countries to refresh travelers in the burning heat of the summer. Mr. Harmer supposes they are called summer fruits on this very account.
A bottle of wine - A goat' s skin full of wine; this I have already shown was the general bottle in the Eastern countries; see on I Samuel 25:18 (note).
