# General Information:
David's song to Yahweh continues. He uses parallelism to emphasize what he is saying. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-parallelism]])
# From the lightning before him coals of fire fell
Possible meanings are 1) "Out of his bright light he sent burning coals" or 2) "From his brightness he sent lightning"
# From the lightning before him
David continues describing Yahweh, whom he compares to a storm, coming to save him from his enemies. This emphasizes God's power and anger towards David's enemies. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
