The Canaanites were stronger than Israel;
suppose they were, but were they stronger than the God of Israel?
We are not able to deal with them, but is not God Almighty able?
Have we not him in the midst of us? Does not he go before us?
And is any thing too hard for him?
Were we as grasshoppers before the giants, and are not they less than grasshoppers before God?
Their cities are walled against us, but can they be walled against heaven?
Besides this, They had had very great experience of the length and strength of God's arm, lifted up and made bare on their behalf. Were not the Egyptians as much stronger than they as the Canaanites were? And yet, without a sword drawn by Israel or a stroke struck, the chariots and horsemen of Egypt were quite routed and ruined..
