Greetings Lamouse4047, Here is a bit of commentary in regards to the pitchers.. "7:16 Trumpets and torches at first concealed within clay pitchers were suddenly displayed at the most startling moment. The impression caused by blaring noise, the always terrible shouts of Israel (cf. Num. 28:21), and sudden lights surrounding the sleeping hosts and shattering the stillness conveyed one idea: Each light could mean a legion behind it, so that they believed an incredible host had moved in to catch the awaking army in a death trap." (1) "7:19 the beginning of the middle watch. About 10 P.M. The smashing of the pitchers not only made noise but allowed the lights to be seen suddenly." (2) Blessings to you, Makarios (1) MacArthur Study Bible, 1997 Word Publishing, pg. 346 (2) Ryrie Study Bible, Expanded Edition, 1995 The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago, pg. 388 |
