That there was much humanity, as well as firmness, in the heads of the children of Ephraim, who joined with the prophet of Jehovah on this occasion, their subsequent conduct, as detailed in the fifteenth verse, sufficiently proves. They did not barely dismiss these most unfortunate captives, but they took that very spoil which their victorious army had taken, and with clothed, shod, fed, and anointed these distressed people, set the feeblest of them upon asses, and escorted them safely to Jericho! We can scarcely find a parallel to this in the universal history of the wars which savage man has carried on against his fellows from the foundation of the world. The compliance also of the whole army, in leaving both the captives and spoil to the disposal of the princes, was really wonderful, and perhaps unparalleled in history. Both the princes and army are worthy to be held up to the admiration and imitation of mankind. because the Lord God.5; Jud 3:8; Ps 69:26; Isa 10:5-7; 47:6; Jer 15:17,18; Eze 25:12-17Eze 26:2,3; Ob 1:10-16; Zec 1:15reacheth.Ge 4:10; 11:4; Ezr 9:6; Re 18:5 keep.Le 25:39-46not with.Jer 25:29; Mt 7:2-4; Ro 12:20,21; 1Pe 4:17,18the Lord.5Psalms 50:16-21
