Commentaries on 2 Chronicles 4:19

• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 19The tables - A single table only is mentioned in 1 Kings 7:48; 2 Chronicles 29:18. It is supposed that Solomon made ten similar tables, any one of which might be used for the showbread; but that the bread was never placed on more than one table at a time.Read the comment
• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 19The Bread of the Presence represented God's provision for his people. It was placed before God on the tables (2 Chronicles 4:8) as an offering, showing it belonged to God and that Israel's provision came from God's "table." The priests ate some of the bread (Leviticus 24:5–9), and the rest was burned. This meal symbolized the covenant meal of fellowship between God and his people (see Exodus 24:9–11).Read the comment
