God Answers Beyond Our Asking
Commentators highlight that this verse is God's generous answer to the prayer in verse 9. The people prayed for priests to be clothed in "righteousness," and God promised "salvation"—a greater gift. They prayed for saints to "shout for joy," and God promised they would "shout aloud for joy." As Charles Spurgeon notes, our "silver prayers" often receive "golden answers" because God gives exceedingly more than we ask.
