2 Samuel17:29
29 And honey, and butter, and sheep, and cheese of kine for David, and for the people that were with him, to eat: for they said, The people is hungry, and weary, and thirsty in the wilderness ▪
i. e. Having been in the wilderness. Which is an easie and common Ellipsis. Or, because of (so the Hebrew Particle hath is oft used) the Wilderness, which they have passed thorough, in which provisions are very scarce.
