Bible Note: In the Greek "food or drink" is actually "eating and drinking". In the Greek "in respect to" means "in that portion of". The "Sabbath day" here refers to the ceremonial sabbaths of the feast of Trumpets and the Day of Atonement (a day of fasting so it wouldn't becovered under "feast day").
