Bible Comments

A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. A thousand shall fall at thy side - Calmet thinks this place should be translated thus: "A thousand enemies may fall upon thee on one side, and ten thousand may fall upon thee on thy right hand: but they shall not come nigh thee to take away thy life." It is a promise of perfect protection, and the utmost safety.
