The expression seemeth barely Latin, for he saith not "believed His word," 1 or "on His words," 2 but "in His words;" 3 yet it is very frequent in Scripture.

He is here alluding to that well-known hymn, commencing, "I will sing unto the Lord, for He hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and the rider hath He thrown into the sea." 4
