2 Samuel 18:28
Greetings <07965> [All is well. or, Peace be to thee. Heb. Peace. he fell down upon his face.]
This act was not only in reverence to the king, but in humble adoration of God, whose name he praises for this victory. The more our hearts are fixed and enlarged, in thanksgiving to God for our mercies, the better disposed we shall be to bear with patience the afflictions mixed with them.
praised <01288> [Blessed.]
defeated <05462> [delivered up. Heb. shut up.]
