'Eat' in the Bible

Some were saying, “We, our sons, and our daughters are numerous. Let us get grain so that we can eat and live.”

The governor ordered them not to eat the most holy things until there was a priest who could consult the Urim and Thummim.

Then he said to them, “Go and eat what is rich, drink what is sweet, and send portions to those who have nothing prepared, since today is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, because the joy of the Lord is your stronghold.”

Then all the people began to eat and drink, send portions, and have a great celebration, because they had understood the words that were explained to them.
