וַיִּבְקְעוּ֩ שְׁלֹ֨שֶׁת הַגִּבֹּרִ֜ים בְּמַחֲנֵ֣ה פְלִשְׁתִּ֗ים וַיִּֽשְׁאֲבוּ־מַ֙יִם֙ מִבֹּ֤אר בֵּֽית־לֶ֙חֶם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר בַּשַּׁ֔עַר וַיִּשְׂא֖וּ וַיָּבִ֣אוּ אֶל־דָּוִ֑ד וְלֹ֤א אָבָה֙ לִשְׁתּוֹתָ֔ם וַיַּסֵּ֥ךְ אֹתָ֖ם לַֽיהוָֽה׃
Lalu ketiga pahlawan itu menerobos perkemahan orang Filistin, menimba air dari sumur Betlehem yang ada di dekat pintu gerbang, lalu membawanya dan menyerahkannya kepada Daud. Tetapi ia tidak mau meminumnya, melainkan mencurahkannya sebagai persembahan bagi Yang Mahakekal.
Rashi
He offered it as a libation to Adonoy. He said, "This is what I learned at Shmuel the Romosi's court: If anyone risks his life for words of Torah,17Rashi is continuing with the interpretation of the verse that the water is a reference to words of Torah. we should not recite the halachah in his name." If so, what is meant by "And instead he offerred it as a libation to Adonoy",18This sounds as if Dovid has accepted the halachic ruling. he [only] recited it in the name of the Gemorah.19The ruling is not to be said over in their name.
