SEV Biblia, Chapter 68:13
Aunque seáis echados entre las ollas, seréis como las alas de la paloma cubierta de plata, y sus plumas con amarillez de oro.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 67:13
Verse 13. Though ye have lien among the pots ] The prophet is supposed here to address the tribes of Reuben and Gad, who remained in their inheritances, occupied with agricultural, maritime, and domestic affairs, when the other tribes were obliged to go against Jabin, and the other Canaanitish kings. Ye have been thus occupied, while your brethren sustained a desperate campaign; but while you are inglorious, they obtained the most splendid victory, and dwell under those rich tents which they have taken from the enemy; coverings of the most beautiful colours, adorned with gold and silver. The words Åwrj qrqryb birakrak charuts, native gold, so exceedingly and splendidly yellow as to approach to greenness-from qry yarak, to be green; and the doubling of the last syllable denotes an exeess in the denomination- excessively green-blistering green. The Targum gives us a curious paraphrase of this and the following verse: "If ye, O ye kings, slept among your halls, the congregation of Israel, which is like a dove covered with the clouds of glory, divided the prey of the Egyptians, purified silver, and coffers full of the finest gold. And when it stretched out its hands in prayer over the sea, the Almighty cast down kingdoms; and for its sake cooled hell like snow, and snatched it from the shadow of death." Perhaps the Romanists got some idea of purgatory here. For the sake of the righteous, the flames of hell are extinguished!
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 7-14 - Fresh mercies should put us in mind of former mercies. If God bring his people into a wilderness, he will be sure to go before them in it, an to bring them out of it. He provided for them, both in the wildernes and in Canaan. The daily manna seems here meant. And it looks to the spiritual provision for God's Israel. The Spirit of grace and the gospel of grace are the plentiful rain, with which God confirms his inheritance, and from which their fruit is found. Christ shall come a showers that water the earth. The account of Israel's victories is to be applied to the victories over death and hell, by the exalte Redeemer, for those that are his. Israel in Egypt among the kiln appeared wretched, but possessed of Canaan, during the reigns of Davi and Solomon, appeared glorious. Thus the slaves of Satan, when converted to Christ, when justified and sanctified by him, loo honourable. When they reach heaven, all remains of their sinful stat disappear, they shall be as the wings of the dove, covered with silver and her feathers as gold. Full salvation will render those white a snow, who were vile and loathsome through the guilt and defilement of sin.
