13 Be of good courage, and let us play the man for our people, and for the cities of our God: and Jehovah do that which seemeth him good.

Matthew Henry's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 19:13

David's wars.

The history is here repeated which we read 2 Samuel 10. The only safety of sinners consists in submitting to the Lord, seeking peace with him, and becoming his servants. Let us assist each other in a good cause; but let us fear lest, while made instruments of good to others, we should come short of salvation, through unbelief and sin.
