13. strengthened . . . gates--or, means of defense against invaders,
14. maketh . . . borders--or, territories ( Genesis 23:17 , Isaiah 54:12 ).
filleth thee, &c.--(Compare Margin).
15-18. God's Word, as a swift messenger, executes His purpose, for with Him to command is to perform ( Genesis 1:3 , Psalms 33:9 ), and He brings about the wonders of providence as easily as men cast crumbs.
17. morsels--used as to food ( Genesis 18:5 ), perhaps here denotes hail.
19, 20. This mighty ruler and benefactor of heaven and earth is such especially to His chosen people, to whom alone ( Deuteronomy 4:32-34 ) He has made known His will, while others have been left in darkness. Therefore unite in the great hallelujah.
