Ministry on This Verse

 It is well, however, to observe that to conquer valiant foes when all Israel was flushed with success and strengthened the hands of the mighty men is a very different thing from the faith which reckons upon God when strength and success are on the enemy’s side and the people are fleeing before him. The latter was David’s case with Goliath; the former, that of the men who slew the other giants. (Wine)
