- like the host of God:
- That is, says the Targumist, a very numerous army, like the army of the angel of God. "And when¹ Jacobª saw¹ them,²° he said,ª° This¹ [is] God'sª host:ª and he calledª° the nameª of that¹ placeª Mahanaim.ª" {Gen 32:2} + "And he said,ª° Nay;¹ but¹ [as] captainª of the hostª of the LORDª am I¹ now¹ come.ª° And Joshuaª fellª° on¹ his faceª to the earth,ª and did worship,ª° and saidª° unto him, What¹ saithª° my lordª unto¹ his servant?ª" {Jsh 5:14} + "Praiseª° ye him, all¹ his angels:ª praiseª° ye him, all¹ his hosts.ª" {Psa 148:2}
