"Naphtali is a hind let loose: He giveth goodly words." — Genesis 49:21 (ASV)
He gives goodly words.
He has liberty in speech, freedom of utterance, he is not in bonds, he is as a hind let loose.
Naphtali is a hind let loose:
The type of what a Christian minister should be—indeed, what every Christian worker should be—a hind let loose, one who can say with David, O Lord, truly I am thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid. Thou hast loosed my bonds.
Naphtali is a hind let loose: he giveth goodly words.
Naphtali was a tribe notable for those that could speak freely, helped by God with a holy freedom in bearing testimony to his truth.
