17 ημεις δε ωπλισμενοι θελομεν προχωρει προθυμοι εμπροσθεν των υιων Ισραηλ, εωσου φερωμεν αυτους εις τον τοπον αυτων· τα δε παιδια ημων θελουσι κατοικει εις τετειχισμενας πολεις, δια τους κατοικους του τοπου·


Commentary on this verse  

By Henry MacLagan

Verse 17. While yet the natural man is ready to co-operate with the spiritual against the powers of evil, until a state of spiritual rest is obtained; but remains are stored up for future use, and are adequately defended by the Lord against the influx of evil from the hells, in the meantime.
