God's people were terrified by a besieging army, but the phrase 'where no fear was' indicates their fear was ultimately baseless because God was on their side. He turned the tables, scattering the enemy's bones and demonstrating that those who oppose Him are easily defeated, offering hope that God can bring victory from seemingly hopeless situations.
