A Place of Spiritual Feasting
Commentators interpret the 'banqueting house' not as a literal place, but as the spiritual reality of communion with Christ. It represents the church, Christian ordinances, and moments of fellowship where believers feast on the richness of the Gospel and enjoy God's presence. It is a place of delight and spiritual nourishment, not of labor or judgment.
