The right hand of the Lord is exalted
Lifted up, very eminent and conspicuous, easily to be observed in
the instances before given, and become great and glorious in
power; see ( Exodus 15:6 ) . The
power of God is superior to all enemies; and is beyond conception
and expression; and is able to do for his people above all they
are able to ask or think;
the right hand of the Lord doth valiantly:
or "acts powerfully". This is repeated for the confirmation of
it, and to show how much the righteous were affected with it, and
how desirous they were of glorifying of it; "the right hand of
the Lord", being three times mentioned, may have respect to the
three divine Persons in the Godhead, whose right hand or power is
the same: and as the right hand of the Father has done powerfully
in the instances given, so the right hand of the Son has worked
mightily in vanquishing all enemies, sin, Satan, death, and the
world; in obtaining the salvation of his people, and in raising
himself from the dead: and so the right hand of the Holy Spirit
has wrought powerfully on Christ, on whom he rested as the Spirit
of might, and through whom Christ offered himself to God, and by
whom he was raised from the dead; and also in the conversion of
sinners, and in helping, assisting, strengthening, and protecting
the saints.
