And I will bring a bit of bread so that you may refresh yourselves. This is why you have passed your servant’s way. After that, you may continue on your way.” “Yes,” they replied, “you may do as you have said.”

Crumble it and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering.

It shall be prepared with oil on a griddle; you are to bring it well-kneaded and present it as a grain offering broken in pieces, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.

On the fourth day, they got up early in the morning and prepared to depart, but the girl’s father said to his son-in-law, “Refresh your heart with a morsel of bread, and then you can go.”

At mealtime Boaz said to her, “Come over here; have some bread and dip it into the vinegar sauce.” So she sat down beside the harvesters, and he offered her roasted grain, and she ate and was satisfied and had some left over.

And everyone left in your house will come and bow down to him for a piece of silver or a morsel of bread, pleading, “Please appoint me to some priestly office so that I can eat a piece of bread.”’”

Now please listen to your servant and let me set a morsel of bread before you so you may eat and have the strength to go on your way.”

…but the poor man had nothing except one small ewe lamb that he had bought. He raised it, and it grew up with him and his children. It shared his food and drank from his cup; it slept in his arms and was like a daughter to him.

And as she was going to get it, he called to her and said, “Please bring me a piece of bread.”

…if I have eaten my morsel alone, not sharing it with the fatherless—

He casts forth His hail like pebbles. Who can withstand His icy blast?

Better a dry morsel in quietness than a house full of feasting with strife.

You will vomit up what little you have eaten and waste your pleasant words.

To show partiality is not good, yet a man will do wrong for a piece of bread.

You have profaned Me among My people for handfuls of barley and scraps of bread. By lying to My people who would listen, you have killed those who should not have died and spared those who should not have lived.
