11 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
11 He rode on a cherub and flew; he was seen on the wings of the wind.
11 He rode a winged creature, swift on wind-wings.
11 He rode upon a cherub, and flew; And He was seen upon the wings of the wind.
11 Mounted on a mighty angelic being, he flew, soaring on the wings of the wind.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 2 Samuel 22:11
Chapter Contents
David's psalm of thanksgiving.
This chapter is a psalm of praise; we find it afterwards nearly as 2 Timothy 4:18. Those who receive signal mercies from God, ought to give him the glory. In the day that God delivered David, he sang this song. While the mercy is fresh, and we are most affected with it, let the thank-offering be brought, to be kindled with the fire of that affection. All his joys and hopes close, as all our hopes should do, in the great Redeemer.
