"He said, "I may not return with you, nor go in with you; neither will I eat bread nor drink water with you in this place."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And he said, I may not return with thee, nor go in with thee,.... Into the city, and into his house in it, being such an idolatrous place, and especially
being forbidden of God: neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in this place; he was resolute and determined to abide by the commandment of the Lord, though there is reason to believe that he was now both hungry and thirsty.
