Mark 2:25-26 And he said to them, Have you never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungered, he, and they that were with him?… An old preacher used to say: The Word has mighty free course among many nowadays, for it goes in at one of their ears, and out at the other. So it seems to be with some readers — they read a very great deal because they do not read anything. Their eye glances, but the mind never rests. The soul does not light upon the truth and stay there. It flits over the landscape as a bird might do, but it builds no nest therein, and finds no rest for the sole of its foot. Such reading is not reading. (C. H. Spurgeon.) Parallel Verses KJV: 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? |
