A Picture of Christ's Victory
Commentator Charles Spurgeon sees David's complete recovery of all that was lost as a powerful picture of Jesus Christ. Just as David recovered his people and possessions, the 'greater Son of David,' Jesus, has victoriously recovered all that humanity lost to sin. This victory, Spurgeon suggests, calls believers to surrender their lives to Him as His 'spoil.'
