1 Samuel8:15
15 And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers , and to his servants.
Besides the several Tenths which God hath reserved for his Service and Servants, he will, when he pleaseth, impose another Tenth upon you.
Heb. to his Eunuchs, which may be properly understood, and may imply a further injury, that he should against the command of God, make some of his People Eunuchs; and take those into his Court and Favour, which God would have cast out of the Congregation.
Marginal references: Heb. Eunuchs.
