The Solitary Champion

All commentators emphasize that the divine warrior acts 'alone.' This signifies that God's work, whether in judgment or redemption, is accomplished by His power without any human assistance. As Charles Spurgeon notes, in Christ's redeeming work and His final battle, He stands as the sole Champion for His people, demonstrating His absolute sufficiency to save.
