Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

Four of God's glorious attributes Hannah here celebrates the glory of:-- (1.) His unspotted purity. This is that attribute which is most praised in the upper world, by those that always behold his face, Isa. vi. When Israel triumphed over the Egyptians God was praised as glorious in holiness, Exod. xv.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

10 , Then she that is my enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her that said, Where is thy God? Or perhaps it was below her to take so much notice of Peninnah, and her malice, in this song; but this is intended as a check to the insolence of the Philistines, and other enemies of God and Israel, that set their mouth against the heavens, Ps. lxxiii.
