Psalms 68:13 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Though ye have lien among the pots— The word rendered pots, signifies, kettles, pots, or furnaces, for various uses, fixed in stone or brick, placed in double rows, and so regularly disposed for convenience and use; and refers to those pots or furnaces, at which the Israelites in Egypt wrought as slaves, and amongst which they were forced to lie down for want of proper habitations, and in the most wretched and vile attire. See Psalms 68:13; Psalms 81:6. But how great was their alteration, by the conquest of their enemies, and especially of the Midianites! See Judges 21:25.Habakkuk 3:7. "Enriched by the spoils of these enemies, ye shall now lie down; (for these words must be supplied) i.e. dwell at ease, and with elegance in your tents." Within the wings of a dove, covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold: These dove-like coverings denote either the rich garments or the costly tents which they took from these Midianites; and which, either because of their various colours, or their being ornamented with silver and gold, resembled the colours of a dove, the feathers of whose wings and body glittered interchangeably as with silver and gold. See Boch. Hier. part. 2: Psalms 50:1 : Psalms 100:2.
