This prayer of Moses is in the spirit of prophecy. As if he had said, When the LORD goeth before his people their enemies shall be scattered. And when they rest, the SPIRIT of the LORD is upon them, causing them to rest. Isaiah 63:14. Reader! remember it is not the many thousands of Israel, or as the word might have been rendered, the ten thousand thousand, which constitute their security, but the LORD'S presence as a defense. Isaiah 4:5. See that precious scripture, Deuteronomy 23:25.
