Mark 2:25
And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?
And he said unto them,.... By way of answer to their question, and which was a full one, and enough to silence them:
Have ye never read what David did; referring to the history in
when he had need: of bread, was in great necessity, and in the utmost distress:
and was an hungered, he, and they that were with him? which was a justifiable reason for what he and his company did; as it was for the action of the disciples; being in a like case, and therefore very appropriate to the purpose; See Gill on "Matthew 12:3".
