Hawker's Poor man's commentary

Deuteronomy 31:15

This must have been a very refreshing season, to the servants of the LORD: of that glorious appearing of the Shechinah latterly, we do not read so much, as when the people came first out of Egypt. Reader! you and I have no cause to envy our fathers of the church in the wilderness, on account of those manifestations. JESUS hath since that period tabernacled among us in substance of our flesh, Oh! that you and I may, by faith, be enabled to say, and we have seen his glory. John 1:14.
