EXPOSITION.
The preservation of the saints bodes ill for their
adversaries. The Amalekites thought themselves clear away with
their booty, but when David's God guided him in the pursuit, they
were soon overtaken and cut in pieces. When God is with us sins
and sorrows flee, and all forms of evil are "_consumed_" before
the power of grace. What a noble picture this and the following
verses present to us of the victories of our glorious Lord Jesus!
EXPLANATORY NOTES AND QUAINT SAYINGS.
Verses 37,38:--
Oh, I have seen the day,
When with a single word,
God helping me to say,
"My trust is in the Lord;"
My soul has quelled a thousand foes,
Fearless of all that could oppose.
^William Cowper, 1731-1800.
