Barnes' Notes
Albert Barnes (1798–1870) · Notes on the Whole Bible · 19th-century historical commentary
“And hath redeemed us from our enemies - Has rescued or delivered us from all our foes; has given to us freedom and peace. For his mercy ... - By all that he has done in order to redeem us; and by all the prosperity, happiness, and peace which have followed as the result of that, he has showed his mercy.

By all the love manifested in the gift of a Saviour - by all the sufferings and toils of his life - by his “agony and bloody sweat” in the garden of Gethsemane - by his “cross and passion,” by all the blessings of salvation here, all our peace, all our purity, all our consolations, all our hopes, and by all the glories of heaven…”
