26-28. Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said--The camp
is supposed to have been protected by a rampart after the attack of the
Amalekites.
Who is on the Lord's side? let him come unto me--The zeal and
courage of Moses was astonishing, considering he opposed an intoxicated
mob. The people were separated into two divisions, and those who were
the boldest and most obstinate in vindicating their idolatry were put
to death, while the rest, who withdrew in shame or sorrow, were
spared.
