Private to you. Anything you write on this verse, here or while reading, shows up here and in My study.
“Because the leaders took the lead in Israel, because the people offered themselves willingly, be blessed, LORD!
“When the princes take the lead in Israel, when the people volunteer, bless the LORD.
Praise ye the LORD for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves.
For that the leaders took the lead in Israel, For that the people offered themselves willingly, Bless ye Jehovah.
Because of the flowing hair of the fighters in Israel, because the people gave themselves freely, give praise to the Lord.
Tap a word to see what it means and everywhere else it's used.
Matthew Henry · Verses 1–5
No time should be lost in returning thanks to the Lord for his mercies; for our praises are most acceptable, pleasant, and profitable, when they flow from a full heart. By this, love and gratitude would be more excited and more deeply fixed in the hearts of believers; the events would be more known and longer remembered. Whatever Deborah, Barak, or the army had done, the Lord must have all the praise. The will, the power, and the success were all from Him.
