20:27-30 Despite the Arameans’ superior numbers, Israel won another outstanding victory by God’s help. All the parties learned that “nothing is impossible with God” (Luke 1:37; see Matt 19:26; Mark 10:27) and that when God is on one’s side, the enemy will retreat (Ps 56:9) with staggering losses (Deut 32:30-31; 2 Kgs 19:32-36). Israel could face the foe fearlessly (Pss 3:6; 27:1-3). • God’s assurance to Israel through the man of God showed that this battle was not just for Israel’s well-being but for the Lord’s glory.
