Nehemiah 5:18 Now that which was prepared for each day was one ox and six choice sheep, also birds were prepared for me; and once in ten days all sorts of wine were furnished in abundance. Yet for all this I did not demand the governor's food allowance, because the servitude was heavy on this people. (NASB ©1995)1 Kings 4:22 Solomon's provision for one day was thirty kors of fine flour and sixty kors of meal,
1 Kings 4:23 ten fat oxen, twenty pasture-fed oxen, a hundred sheep besides deer, gazelles, roebucks, and fattened fowl.
2 Thessalonians 3:8 nor did we eat anyone's bread without paying for it, but with labor and hardship we kept working night and day so that we would not be a burden to any of you; (NASB ©1995) Treasury of Scripture Knowledge Now that which was prepared for me daily was one ox and six choice sheep; also fowls were prepared for me, and once in ten days store of all sorts of wine: yet for all this required not I the bread of the governor, because the bondage was heavy upon this people.Now that 1Ki 4:22,23 one ox (This was food sufficient for more than two hundred men. Bp. Pococke says that the bey of Tunis had daily twelve sheep, with fish and fowls, soups, oranges, eggs, onions, boiled rice, etc., etc. His nobles dined with him; after they had done, the servants sat down; and when they had finished, the poor took what was left. Here the bey's twelve sheep are equal to Nehemiah's one ox and six choice sheep; and probably the mode of living between the two was nearly alike. It is still the practice in the East to calculate the expenses of the table, not by the money paid, but by the provisions consumed by the guests.) required 14,15 because the bondage Ps 37:21,26 Concordance Entries Abundance Abundant Abundantly Allotted Allowance Birds Bondage Bread Choice Crushed Daily Demand Demanded Demands Didn't Fat Fowls Furnished Governor Governor's Heavy Kinds Likewise Ox Poultry Prepared Ready Required Ruler Service Servitude Sheep Six Skins Sorts Sought Spite Store Supply Ten Wine Wines Yet Yoke Jump to Previous Occurrence Bondage Bread Choice Daily Demand Fowls Governor Heavy Once Ox Prepared Required Sheep Six Sorts Store Ten Wine Jump to Next Occurrence Bondage Bread Choice Daily Demand Fowls Governor Heavy Once Ox Prepared Required Sheep Six Sorts Store Ten Wine New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, Calif.
