Commentary on 2 Samuel 17:29

Theological / Devotional

Honey, and butter. Gilead was famous for its cattle and herds (Num. 32:1; 1 Chron. 5:9).

Cheese of kine. Heb. shephoth baqar. Baqar means cattle, but shephoth occurs only here and its meaning is uncertain. It is thought to indicate some product from cattle, such as cream, cheese, or beef.
