Kings II 3:18 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 3:18

And this is but a light thing in the sight of the Lord
To give them such a plenty of water in such an extraordinary manner: he would do for them what was greater, not only save them from falling into the hand of Moab, which they feared,

but he wilt deliver the Moabites into your hands;
which was more than was asked for, or expected.
