1 Samuel26:11

11 The LORD forbid that I should stretch forth mine hand against the LORDS anointed: but, I pray thee, take thou now the spear that is at his bolster , and the cruse of water , and let us go.

Which will shew where we have been, and what we could have done.

Which might be put there, either to wash himself in case of any accidental Pollution, which oft happened in the Night: or to refresh him, and quench his thirst in that hot Climate and Season: or for divers other uses.
