24 Who will listen to what you say? The share of the man who stayed with the supplies is to be the same as that of him who went down to the battle. All will share alike.”
When 400 people who participated the war with David came back, those who did not participate the war due to tiredness came and welcomed them.
The evil men and troublemakers among 400 said, “Because they did not go out with us, we will not share with them the plunder we recovered. However, each man may take his wife and children and go.”
However, David said that because God is the one who protected them and allowed them to win the battle and gave them the things that they plundered, so all the things should be shared alike.
The evil men and troublemakers thought that they won because of themselves, but David believed that they won because of God.
He did not just share the plunder with 200 people who did not participate the war but also the elders of Judea and other towns that he went.
Have the perception of community like David. And share the grace given by the Lord.
Shalom and God bless!
