bThe word of the Lord is proven;
He is a shield to all who trust in Him.
No entry exists in Forerunner Commentary for 2 Samuel 22:32.
II Samuel 22:31-34
At this point I want to make a correction for something that I said in the last two sermons. In II Samuel 22:33, I identified the word strength as the same word chayil. But I had made a mistake that I need to correct right now. The word chayil does appear in this verse but it is with not the word strength, it is translated in the word power. This does not change what I had said before about God being the source of everything good and the power that only comes from God. The word strength is from the Hebrew word maoz, meaning a refuge, a fortress, a shelter. It is used figuratively of God as a fortress.
II Samuel 22:31-34
Here in II Samuel 22:33, the word strength is the same Hebrew word chayil. David declares all strength—as well as everything good that chayil represents—comes from God.
II Samuel 22:31-34
In verse 33, that word strength is the same word, chayil. David declares all strength, as well as everything good that virtuous represents comes from God.
