Psalms 68:27

There is probably still a reference to Saul and his conquests — “little Benjamin who conquered for thee,” or, possibly, here Benjamin takes the victor’s place as leader of the procession.

Their council. — The reading must certainly be changed in accordance with Psalms 55:14. Their crowd, or company.
