4:41 Into the pot - Together with the pottage which they had taken out of it.

4:42 First fruits - Which were the priests due, #Numb 18:12|, but these, and probably the rest of the priests dues, were usually brought by the pious Israelites, according to their ability and opportunity, to the Lord's prophets, because they were not permitted to carry them to Jerusalem.
