This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Moreover (δέ)

But the correct reading is γάρ for, introducing an illustration of rejection by God, and thus connecting what follows with the close of the last chapter. It is possible that I may be rejected, for the Israelites were.

All

Strongly emphasized in contrast with most of them (A.V., many) in 1Co 10:5. All enjoyed the privileges, but few improved them. The word is repeated five times.

Under the cloud

The cloudy pillar which guided the Israelites. It is sometimes spoken of as covering the host. See Psa 105:39; Wis. 10:17; 19:7; Num 14:14.
