Psalms 147:10 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

He delighteth not in the strength of the horse— See Psalms 33:16-17. Mr. Green renders this, He delighteth not in the courage of the horse, nor is pleased with the agility of the warrior. The meaning seems to be, "The Lord, who fighteth for us, (see Nehemiah 4:20.) will not take part with our enemies, though they are superior to us in the strength of their cavalry and the agility of their infantry. These, though the natural causes of military success, are of no efficacy against the interposition of the Deity. The fear of him is a more certain assurance of conquest, than any or all human resources."

Psalms 147:10

10 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.
