bowed <07812> [bowed.]


18:3

18:4

wash ... feet <07272 07364> [wash your feet.]

In those ancient times, shoes such as ours, were not in use; and the foot was protected only with sandals or soles, fastened round the foot with straps. It was, therefore, not only necessary from motives of cleanliness, but also a very great refreshment, in so hot a country, to get the feet washed at the end of a day's journey; and this is the first thing that Abraham proposes.

Rest in the shade was the second requisite for the refreshment of a weary traveller.

food <03899> [bread.]

This was the third requisite, and is introduced in its proper order; as eating immediately after exertion or fatigue is very unwholesome.
