The LORD killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up.
Ver. 6. The Lord killeth, and maketh alive.] He layeth men for dead, and then reviveth them, as 2 Corinthians 1:9,10. That great apostle was "in death often"; and those ancient confessors cry out, "For thy sake are we killed all the day long." Rom 8:36 The Hebrews say that Peninnah's children died all but two, and that those were saved alive by Hannah's prayer for them, at their mother's request.
