Verse 14. Seen. God miraculously interposed in favour of the Machabees, and his angels appeared at their head. 1 Maccabees 2:22 and 5:2. and 10:29. and 11:8. and 15:15. A handful of men thus routed vast armies, and asserted their independence, avenging religion and the state, which they restored to greater splendour.—South, whence storms usually arise in that country. Job 37:9. The angels confounded the enemy. 1 Maccabees 10:30.
