If we read these triumphs in a spiritual sense, with reference to the preaching of the everlasting gospel, the subject will be infinitely heightened above that of the mere history. The Lord indeed gave the word to his servants, who in his name, and by his power, drove out all their enemies; and hence we find Joshua and others, going forth in the Lord's name, to victory. But the word which Jehovah gave in this place eminently means his word of salvation by Jesus Christ. Hence, w hen prophets, apostles, and evangelists, went forth preaching the word, the Lord confirmed that word by signs following: great were the effects of it indeed; not only earthly potentates and kings fell under it, but all the power of the enemy. And what is it now, but the same? Devils (said the apostles) are subject through thy word, blessed Jesus; and so may the faithful still praise him. Luke 10:17.
