Vers. 13. He causeth it to come, whether for Correction, or for his Land, or for Mercy.
He, that is, God causeth, It, that is, the Cloud; He causeth the Cloud to find (so the Hebrew) to find every place and every person, concerning whom it hath received command and commission from God. Thus the word is used by Moses (Numb. 32.23.) If ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the Lord, and be sure your sin will find you out; that is, the punishment of your sin, and that Judgment which God will pour out upon you for your sin, will find you out wheresoever ye are. In this sense the Cloud will find us out; we render well, He causeth it to come, that is, to come to that place or person, to that Nation or People, to which himself hath appointed it: He causeth it to come, Whether for Correction, or for his Land, or for Mercy.
