1 Samuel14:32

32 And the people flew upon the spoil , and took sheep and oxen, and calves, and slew them on the ground, and the people did eat them with the blood .

To wit, at Evening, when the time prefixed by Saul was expired.

Not having patience to tarry till the blood was perfectly gone out of them, as they should have done. See Gen. 9. 4. Levit. 17. 14. Deut. 12. 16. So they who seemed to make conscience of the Kings Commandment for fear of the Curse, make no scruple of transgressing Gods Command.

Marginal references: Lev. 7. 26. and 19. 26. Deut. 12. 16.
