Hawker's Poor man's commentary

Deuteronomy 23:24,25

Did not the LORD, by these precepts of freedom, and liberty to partake of the fruits of the vine and of the field one among another, not only teach the brotherly love and affection, by which his people should be known and distinguished: but was it not intended also, to show that our blessings are common blessings, for all freely to partake in the LORD JESUS? The disciples were not reproved in the days of our LORD'S flesh, for eating of the ears of corn, as they walked through the fields, but because it was done on the LORD's day. Matthew 12:2.
