15. overthrew--literally, "shook off," as in Exodus 14:27 , as a contemptuous rejection of a reptile.

23. remembered us--or, "for us" ( Psalms 132:1 ).
our low estate--that is, captivity.

24. And hath redeemed us--or, literally, "snatched us"--alluding to the sudden deliverance effected by the overthrow of Babylon.

25. To the special favors to His people is added the record of God's goodness to all His creatures (compare Matthew 6:30 ).

26. God of heaven--occurs but once ( Jonah 1:9 ) before the captivity. It is used by the later writers as specially distinguishing God from idols.
