Carl Friedrich Keil and Franz Delitzsch Old Testament Commentary

Notwithstanding their numerous increase, they would suffer no want of food. "Ye shall eat that which has become old, and bring out old for new." Multiplicabo vos et multiplicabo simul annonam vestram, adeo ut illam prae multitudine et copia absumere non possitis, sed illam diutissime servare adeoque abjicere cogamini, novarum frugum suavitate et copia superveniente (C. a Lap.). הוציא vetustum triticum ex horreo et vinum ex cella promere (Calvin).
