This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Arise, i.e. arise and come. One word put for two, as Gen_43:33, marvelled (i.e. marvelled looking) one at another; and Gen_43:34, he took messes, i.e. he took and sent messes, as our translation renders it. And this word is very proper in this place, because it was to be used by God’s appointment when the ark was to be removed from one place to another, Num_10:35, as now it was from the tabernacle in Zion to the temple in Moriah, upon which occasion this and the two following verses were used by Solomon, 2Ch_6:41,42.
Into thy rest; into thy resting-place, the temple, so called Isa_66:1, where thou hast now a fixed habitation.
The ark of thy strength; the seat of thy powerful and glorious presence, from whence thou dost put forth and manifest thy strength on the behalf of thy people when they desire and need it.
