• He receives what he prays for, believing. But the soul uses mercies and deliverances to count for more. It has been delivered from death; hence it looks to be kept from falling. (“Practical Reflections on the Psalms: Psalms 55-58” by J.N. Darby)
• The light of the living was the light of divine preserving favor for Israel.
