It was carried by the Levites and led the Israelites during their journeys in the wilderness. The setting out of the ark marked the beginning of a new stage in their journey, emphasizing God's guidance and protection. This practice reflects the importance of seeking divine direction in all endeavors.<p><b>Moses would say</b><br>Moses, as the leader and prophet of Israel, often communicated directly with God and served as an intermediary for the people. His words here are a prayer, invoking God's power and presence. This highlights the role of prayer in seeking God's intervention and blessing in the lives of believers.<p><b>Rise up, O LORD!</b><br>This phrase is a call for God to take action, reflecting a deep reliance on His power and presence. It echoes the language of warfare, where God is seen as a divine warrior leading His people to victory. This invocation is a reminder of God's sovereignty and His active role in the lives of His people.<p><b>May Your enemies be scattered</b><br>The scattering of enemies signifies God's protection and deliverance from those who oppose Him and His people. This reflects the broader biblical theme of God as a defender and protector, as seen in various Psalms and historical accounts where God intervenes on behalf of Israel.<p><b>may those who hate You flee before You</b><br>This phrase underscores the idea that opposition to God is ultimately futile. It reflects the biblical principle that those who oppose God and His purposes will not stand. This is seen throughout Scripture, where God's enemies are consistently defeated, pointing to the ultimate victory of God over evil.<br><br>This verse, in its entirety, serves as a powerful reminder of God's presence, protection, and the assurance of victory for those who trust in Him. It also foreshadows the ultimate triumph of Christ, who scatters the spiritual enemies of sin and death through His resurrection.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a></b><br>The leader of the Israelites, chosen by God to lead His people out of Egypt and through the wilderness.

It is deserving of observation that the prayers were offered by Moses, not by Aaron. The inverted <span class= "ital">nuns, </span>or parenthetical marks, which are found in a large number of Hebrew manuscripts at the beginning and end of these verses, are thought by some to denote their insertion as a break in the narrative whilst others have ascribed to them a mystical meaning. The words, "Return, O Lord," Bishop "Wordsworth observes," pre-announced the blessed time of rest and peace, when God <span class= "ital">would abide with His Church </span>on <span class= "ital">earth, </span>by the gift of the Holy Ghost, and will <span class= "ital">tabernacle </span>for ever with His people in heavenly rest and joy."

They had, as it were, a sacramental character; they were visible signs, corresponding to invisible realities, as the movements of the hands on the dial correspond to the action of the machinery within. When the ark and the cloud set forward, it was the Almighty God going on before to victory; when the ark and the cloud rested, it was the all-merciful God returning to protect and cherish his own. This is clearly recognized in the morning and evening prayer of Moses. The typical and spiritual character of that setting forward and that resting could not well have been lost upon any religious mind - that God going before us is the certain and abiding pledge of final victory, that God returning to us is the only hope of present safety. <span class="cmt_word">Rise up, Lord, and</span> <span class="cmt_word">let thine enemies be scattered.</span> The sixty-eighth Psalm, which we have learnt to associate with the wonders of Pentecost and the triumphs of the Church on earth, seems to be an expansion of Moses' morning prayer. <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/numbers/10-35.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">Whenever</span><br /><span class="heb">וַיְהִ֛י</span> <span class="translit">(way·hî)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunctive waw | Verb -
