Exodus 2:20

That he may eat bread— The father reproached his daughters with want of hospitality to the Egyptian, (for such Mosses seemed to them from his dress and language,) and ordered them to call him, to eat bread, i.e. to receive refreshment and entertainment at his house. Dr. Shaw observes, that the Eastern nations in general are great eaters of bread; it being computed, that three persons in four live entirely upon it; or else upon such compositions as are made of barley or wheat flour. Frequent mention is made of this simple diet in the Scriptures; where the flesh of animals, though sometimes, indeed, it may be included in the eating of bread, or making a meal, is not often recorded. See Genesis 18:5 and 1 Samuel 28:22.Genesis 21:14; Genesis 37:25; Genesis 43:31. Deuteronomy 9:9. 1 Samuel 28:20; 1 Samuel 28:25.
