The Unstoppable King
Most commentators see this verse as a powerful image of a victorious king. Like a determined general who refuses to be diverted by luxury, he takes a quick drink from a stream in his path and presses on in pursuit of his enemies. This illustrates the Messiah's relentless and swift advance to secure His victory and establish His kingdom.
