CONTENTS

We have in this Chapter the Prophet still at his devotions; in which he celebrates the wonders of redemption, and yet more the glorious God of redemption.

Habakkuk 3:1

Various have been the opinion of the learned concerning the word Shigionoth; The word itself is no doubt the plural of Shiggnion, which the Septuagint have rendered Song. But some derive it from the Arabic Schaga, to be in trouble. Be this however as it may, one thing is certain, and that is the most important for us to know, the prayer of the Prophet is in the full view of the glorious redemption by Christ, and therefore it is a prayer of faith.
