Hawker's Poor man's commentary

Numbers 13:30

Reader! do not fail, in this view of Caleb's zeal, to remark the blessed properties of distinguishing grace! And is not Caleb, in this instance, a type of all the true solders of the LORD JESUS, who in spite of the evil report of the ungodly, encourage the hearts of the LORD'S heritage to hold on, and hold out, assured of victory through the blood of the LAMB. See in the following chapter the LORD'S gracious approbation of this, Numbers 14:22.
