The Worshipful Return

Commentators describe the return to Jerusalem not merely as a march home but as a 'festal procession' and a 'march of hosannas.' They came with musical instruments, heading to the temple to continue the praise that had begun before the battle. This illustrates that worship is not a one-time event but a continuous response of gratitude to God.
