“And there came of the children of Benjamin and Judah to the hold unto David.”
King James Version (KJV)
12:17 The God of our fathers - He calls God, the God of ourfathers, both his fathers and theirs; thus he minds them, not to dealill with him; for they were both descendents from the same patriarchs,and servants of the same God. And thus he encourages himself to believe,that God would right him, if he was abused. For he was the God of hisfathers; therefore a blessing was entailed upon him: and a God to allIsrael in particular, as well as a Judge to all the earth.
12:18 The Spirit - Not only saving graces, but other heroical andgenerous motions are ascribed to God's spirit, which here stirred upin him a more that ordinary greatness of mind and resolution.
And there came of the children of Beniamin, and Iudah, to the hold vnto Dauid.
