2 Samuel 12:18

Studie

       

18 And it came to pass on the seventh day that the child died: and the servants of David feared to tell him, that the child was dead. For they said: Behold when the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he would not hearken to our voice: how much more will he afflict himself if we tell him that the child is dead?

Bread

The word “bread” is used two ways in the Bible. In some cases it means actual bread; in others it stands for food in general. Food in the Bible represents everything good and true coming to use from the Lord. Of all foods, though, bread itself is perhaps the most basic and pure. As such it represents the most central of all desires for good: the love of the Lord Himself.
