1 SAMUEL 21:4 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And the priest answered David, and said, There is no common bread under mine hand, but there is hallowed bread; if the young men have kept themselves at least from women.”
Now what do you have at hand? Give me five loaves of bread, or whatever is found — David's *v'etah mah yesh tachat yadcha*, what do you have at hand, requests food, the basic sustenance of a fugitive. The *chamesh lechem*, five loaves, is modest, suggesting David understands the constraints of the sanctuary supplies.
