Sir John Chardin understands those passages which speak of a right to eat at the royal table, as pointing out a right to a seat there, when the repast was public and solemn. So in a manuscript Note on 1 Kings 2:7, he tells us that it was to be understood of the majilis, - the term for an assembly of lords, or a public feast
and not of the daily and ordinary repast. Hence, though Mephibosheth was to eat at all public times at the king's table, yet he would want the produce of his lands for food at other times, which it was necessary for Ziba to understand. 2 Samuel 9:7, 9:11-13, 19:28; 2 Kings 25:29; Luke 14:15Reciprocal2 Samuel 9:13 - he did eat; 16:3 - where is; 19:17 - Ziba; 21:7 - Mephibosheth; 1 Chronicles 8:34 - Meribbaal; Jeremiah 52:34 - there was; Luke 22:30 - eat Verse 11Ziba2 Samuel 19:17 According16:1-4, 19:26Reciprocal9:7 - eat bread; 9:10 - shall eat bread; 9:13 - he did eat; 19:33 - Come thou Verse 12son1 Chronicles 8:8, 8:34-40, 9:40-44, MicahservantsMicah 7:5, 7:6
