This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Whom thou wilt send with me, i.e. what angel it is, whether it be a created angel, for then I profess I am unsatisfied with him, Exo_33:15; or the same uncreated Angel Christ, who hath hitherto accompanied us, and then I am content. But I am at a great loss by thy withdrawing thy cloudy pillar from the people to whom it is to be a guide.



I know thee by name, i.e. distinctly and familiarly, as one whom I have much converse with, and great kindness for; thy name is written in my book. Compare Exo_32:32,33 Psa 87:5,6 Php 4:3. And



knowing here notes approbation and affection, as Psa_1:6 Mat_7:23 compare Jer_1:5.
