If you read it as it is in your books, then it is only a speech of God to them.
If you reade it as it is in your books, then it is only a speech of God to them.
But if you read it according to the Hebrew, they shall cry to me, My God, we know thee, Israel: They here seem to put God in mind who they were, as if they should say, we are Israel who know thee, remember we are not strangers ⟨p. 9⟩to thee; They shall cry unto me, My God, we know thee, Israel: It's Israel that cries to thee, Oh my God!
But if you reade it according to the Hebrew, they shall cry to me, My God, we know thee, Israel: They here seem to put God in mind who they were, as if they should say, we are Israel who know thee, remember we are not strangers ⟨p. 9⟩to thee; They shall cry unto me, My God, we know thee, Israel: It's Israel that cries to thee, Oh my God!
Or as if they should put God in mind of their Father §2Israel in whom their confidence was; They shall cry to me, My God, we know thee, Israel: Oh remember our Father Israel and deal graciously with us for the sake of our Father Israel: Just like those in Matth. that would cry, We have Abraham to our Father: so here this people would cry; in their cries in the time of their affliction they would cry to God that they had Israel to their Father, we have reference to Israel who did so prevail as a Prince with God, and therefore we hope we shall fare the better for Israel;
