SEV Biblia, Chapter 24:22
Y Arauna dijo a David: Tome y sacrifique mi señor el rey lo que bien le pareciere; he aquí bueyes para el holocausto; y trillos y otros aderezos de bueyes para leña;
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Samuel 24:22
Verse 22. Here be oxen for burnt-sacrifice] He felt for the king; and showed his loyalty to him by this offer. He felt for the people; and was willing to make any sacrifice to get the plague stayed. He felt for his own personal safety; and therefore was willing to give up all to save his life. He felt for the honour of God; and therefore was glad that he had a sacrifice to offer, so that God might magnify both his justice and mercy.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 22. And Araunah said unto David, let my lord the king take and offer up what [seemeth] good unto him , etc.] Build an altar, offer sacrifices of whatsoever he found upon the premises fit for the same, and make use of whatever came to hand proper to perform such service with, as follows: behold, [here be] oxen for burnt sacrifice : which were employed in treading the corn, hence the law in ( Deuteronomy 25:4); and threshing instruments ; not flails, such as are used by us, but wooden sledges, drays or carts drawn on wheels, which were filled with stones, and the bottom of them stuck with iron teeth, and were drawn by oxen to and fro over the sheaves of corn; (see Isaiah 28:27); and [other] instruments of the oxen for wood ; as their yokes; these Araunah gave leave to take to burn the sacrifice with; and in ( Chronicles 21:23), it is added, “and the wheat for the meat offering”, which was upon the threshingfloor; and there always went a meat offering with a burnt offering.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 18-25 - God's encouraging us to offer to him spiritual sacrifices, is a evidence of his reconciling us to himself. David purchased the groun to build the altar. God hates robbery for burnt-offering. Those know not what religion is, who chiefly care to make it cheap and easy to themselves, and who are best pleased with that which costs them leas pains or money. For what have we our substance, but to honour God with it; and how can it be better bestowed? See the building of the altar and the offering proper sacrifices upon it. Burnt-offerings to the glory of God's justice; peace-offerings to the glory of his mercy Christ is our Altar, our Sacrifice; in him alone we may expect to escape his wrath, and to find favour with God. Death is destroying all around, in so many forms, and so suddenly, that it is madness not to expect and prepare for the close of life __________________________________________________________________
