2. For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult. So sure
are they of devouring thy people that they already shout over the feast. And they that hate thee have lifted up the head. Confident of conquest, they
carry themselves proudly and exalt themselves as if their anticipated victories
were already obtained. These enemies of Israel were also God’s enemies, and are
here described as such by way of adding intensity to the argument of the
intercession. The adversaries of the church are usually a noisy and a boastful
crew.
