On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

He sets himself to magnify the deliverances God had wrought for him, that he might be the more affected in his returns of praise. It is good for us to observe all the circumstances of a mercy, which magnify the power of God and his goodness to us in it. The more imminent and threatening the danger was out of which we were delivered the greater is the mercy of the deliverance.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan
