The Enemy's Arrogant Heart
Commentators note the poetic style of this verse. The short, breathless phrases—'I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide'—are meant to convey the enemy's frantic greed, arrogance, and bloodlust. This isn't just a plan; it's a window into the heart of those who oppose God, revealing their absolute confidence in their own power.
